1992 Merrimackan Volume 42
o o o
When I inherited the position of Editor-in-Chief, I knew I was in for a tough year.
The staff of the Merrimackan had lost an incredible group of seniors, and would
need to begin the "rebuilding process." Faced with the challenges of creating a new,
dedicated core of staff members, meeting deadlines, and eventually producing a
quality product, I began to have doubts, but quickly learned that in leadership
doubts cause hesitancy, which can threaten success. It was simply time to "make
the best of what we had."
Despite the fears and frustration, we, the small group of the Merrimackan staff
have pooled our efforts, sacrificed a great deal of time and energy, and have
hopefully captured some of the highlights of the 1991-1992 academic year at
Merrimack College. It is our sincere hope that the members of the Merrimack
College family will enjoy our attempt at creating a pleasant memory of this
particular stop, "on the road to success."

On The Road To Success
The road to success is
long, difficult, and often
lonely. Although
measurement of success
depends largely upon the
individual, it is considered a
miracle if one can earn an
adequate living without
some form of formal
education. Being in a
position to obtain this
education is an obstacle in
itself. Everything costs much
more money than is readily
available- books, tuition,
food, and gas. Although
many of us are truly blessed
by parents who can provide
the financial assistance
necessary to make things
happen, others are not.
Instead they must decide
aetween the lesser of two
jvils: excessive hours of
employment, or the
undesirable, interest accruing
oans. In the end, when a
graduate firmly grasps the all
powerful diploma in his or
change. Commuters will
forever ponder, "What would
it have been like to live on
campus?" Residents will
forever question, "Would my
grades have been better if I
could have gone home to
sleep in a nice, quiet room?"
And, of course. Division of
Continuing Education
students will look back in
The 1992
Merrimackan will become a
historical representation of
the past academic year that
captures the true essence of
the collegiate experience. It
provides a complete picture
of Merrimack - Clubs,
Organizations, Athletic
Teams, Faculty,
Administration and various
degree, but'we maintained
our sanity and reached our
goal. There will,
undoubtedly, be many
unexpected obstacles in our
future. Of course, no matter
how rocky or curvy the road
may grow, we will continue
to move forward, down the
"road to success."
ler hand, it is done with
elief, as well as memories of
he various sacrifices.
Certain elements of
:ollege life will never
social events. Hopefully, in
years from now, students will
look at it and reminisce. We
have faced countless
obstacles in our quest for a
disbelief, "How did I ever
work full time, raise my
children, maintain my
marriage and earn a college
degree?"
u ndoubtedly, there are
countless individuals at
Merrimack who have, in their
own way, worked to make
Merrimack a pleasant place.
These individuals, both
within the faculty, the staff,
and the administration, have
continuously reached out and
made an everlasting
impression in all of our lives.
The staff of the 1992
Merrimackan would like to
direct your attention towards
three particular individuals:
Marv Hamel, Betty Kelleher
and Patricia Long.
Mary, Betty and Pat,
we proudly dedicate Volume
42 of the Merrimackan to all
of you. Your respective
contributions to Merrimack
have not gone unnoticed.
You have managed to make
the pathway a little bit
smoother as we the students
moved through Merrimack,
"On The Road To Success."
No matter what the question Mrs. Hamel maintains her composure and
flashes a warm smile.
M ary Hamel joined the staff of the Office of Financial Aid
in September of 1979. Since then, when confused and frustrated
students or parents have walked into the office, they have been
greeted by her friendly smile. Frequently referred to as the
"sweet lady in front of the door with the white hair," she seems
blessed by an endless supply of patience and understanding as
she answers endless questions regarding scholarships and loans.
She is loved and respected by the Director, Assistant- Director,
Loan Coordinator and all of the office's work-study staff. Her
pleasant nature will definitely be missed when she leaves
Merrimack in July of 1992.
4
B etty Kelleher has dedicated the past 22 years of
her life to the Merrimack College family. She has
worked in various offices around campus, including the
Office of Fiscal Affairs, as well as for different members
of the Administration. Now, she is the first person that a
visitor at Merrimack College sees upon entering Austin
Hall, and there is no one better qualified for the position.
In a sense, she is a perfect example of one of the charms
that attracts so many to Merrimack. When a potential
student walks through the door of Austin, she
immediately works to make him or her feel comfortable.
She has a big heart and is definitely one of Merrimack's
finest.
Pat Long definitely adds a special spark to the Resident Life Office, and often
brings a much needed chuckle to the yearbook staff.
I^t Long has been a memberoof the Resident Life
Staff for the past 5 years, and was, for 12 years prior, a
member of the Office of Financial Aid Team. Like Mary
and Betty, she too succeeds in eliminating some of our
confusion, while maintaining more than just a pleasant
profile. When incoming students have questions
regarding the rooms or their roommates, or present
students look to inquire about room changes, she finds
the answers. To the members of the yearbook staff, she
has been like one of the family. Ample words cannot be
written to show our gratitude for her frequent words of
encouragement and timely expressions of concern.
- Heather Fleming
Any student or faculty member who has had occasion to deal with Betty
Kelleher knows that her gift to initiate a friendly conversation is one of
Merrimack's greatest charms.

Assistants
Resident Assistants do their best to make new students comfort-
able. Before students move in, the Resident Assistants must
complete a comprehensive training program that is constructed
to prepare them for the trials and tribulations of the coming year.
Throughout the year they are faced with various challenges that
fellow students may find undesirable. Despite the occasional
friction, most of the staff look back at the learning experience as
quite rewarding.

Members of the Orientation Committee have
a tough job. In addition to creating the first
impression of Merrimack College for many
incoming students, they are also frequently
called upon to respond to endless questions of
the incoming students... W/ty atn 1 here? Do 1
really want to live on campus? What is this place
going to be like? Is there anything to do here? Wiat
if 1 don't get along with my roommate? The
Orientation Committee is a dedicated group of
individuals that donate a great deal of time to
get students started off on the right foot.
Both residents and commuters are offered
the opportunity to spend one weekend together
before the opening of the Mack. Members of the
Orientation Committee serve as Big Brothers
and Big Sisters to the new, rather apprehensive
students. Each day, at least once, the groups
gather, and Orientation Committee members
lead discussions on a various array of topics.
During these gatherings, friendships are formed
that last an eternity.
Members of the Orientation Committee offer
a great deal of time and compassion to the often
timid freshmen. They strive to ease new students
into the wonderful world of Merrimack College.

Registration
Reservations
Joy and rest are not all that the holiday brings. With it comes the responsibility of preparing for the upcoming semester,
as well as meeting the deadlines from the old one. One of the responsibilities at this time is registering for the spring semester.
As a freshman, 1 wasn't sure what to expect, so 1 approached the whole event with an open mind, and the promise that 1 would
not take anymore 8:00 classes unless absolutely necessary.
When talking to a few friends on campus who had already gone through the process before, their reaction was not at
all favorable. Sophomore Steve Moscaritolo identified a major hindrance which he encountered. "The lines are unbearable,
especially for drop- add." The recurring complaint regarding the lines was present in almost every comment about registration.
Eric Brown, a junior Physics major explained, "The lines are so long, waiting in them is a way of life." To say the least, 1 was in
no hurry to register.
The first stop on my path to registration was advisement. 1 must have either been lucky or early, because it seemed that
all the classes that 1 wanted to take were open, and at the times 1 wanted them. However, the simplicity of the routine did not
fill me with ease, but with skepticism of what must be next.
As 1 waited for my appropriate day and time to bring my course sheet to be completed, I talked to various other people.
One freshman, Carolvn Troy, commented about this final step. "Even if you get your course sheet filled out ahead of time, you
still have to wait until the time that was given to you. I don't think it should go by alphabetical order, because people at the end
of the list will not have as many classes still open to them. It should be first come first serve." Michael Burt, another freshman
who was caught in the bureaucracy of the system merely commented that it was a slow, difficult process.
After speaking to these other students about the process, I was shocked to see just how many students really did not know
how it actually worked. Eor example, most students, (including myself) thought that it worked by alphabetical order. In truth,
it actually works on a lottery system based upon how many courses hav'e been taken. Not only was there this problem with not
understanding how the process worked, but there was also a feeling of being uninformed about where to go and when.
When the time came for me to register, my thoughts darted back to the warnings I had received concerning the long
lines and endless frustration that I would face. Again, I must hav'e been lucky. I went to Austin Hall, walked into the office,
registered, and left. This process that had been depicted as such a horror took me only about five minutes. For others, however,
long lines twisted and turned, frustration intensified as so many stood and waited for their turn. What was the difference? Why
was it that some students had no problems, while others had nothing but difficulty? This is a question for which I have not yet
found an answer.
What would some of
the students do to improve
the stressful process? For the
harrowing routine of add-
drop, could a phone- in
system be initiated? Could
more registration stations be
set up?
As for now it's in the
past...Asafreshman who will
undoubtedlv need to re-live
the experience, 1 must say that
1 am glad 1 now know what
it's all about.

Right Here...
beginning of the race there
are too many candidates, but
quickly, the numbers drop.
In this election. Senators Bob
Kerrey and Tom Markin were
among the first to drop out.
Recently, former Senator
Paul Tsongas decided to
follow their footsteps, and
also withdraw his
candidacy.. Did he make the
right choice? Although he
has been fairly successful in
conveying his ideas to the
American public, the general
consensus still seems to
suggest that people fear that
he lacks the necessary
charisma to affect the morale
of the American public in a
positive enough fashion.
As a result of this
rapidly revolving door that
curses the democrats, voters
are left with little choice:
Arkansas Governor Bill
Clinton or former California
Governor Jerry Brown.
Arkansas Governor Bill
Clinton has emerged as the
front runner among the
contenders for the
Democratic party
nomination. Early in the
campaign, Clinton was
plagued by various rumors of
his adulteiA' and alleged draft
dodging. Surprisingly, his
momentum suggests that he
The Democratic Party. Can the odds be overcome? Despite the revolving door that plagues the underdogs, in
1993, could a Democrat make his way into the office?
The past two years
have been nothing less than
eventful. The dissolving of
the Soviet Union, the Gulf
War, as well as the Winter
Olympic games have
collectively kept the
American public glued to the
television and newspapers.
A new event, howev'er, is
taking center stage in
America's eye - the 1992
presidential campaign. As
usual, the nation is divided
over the candidates.
The Republicans are
led by President George
Bush. He leads the
Republican party in delegates
for the party nomination.
His platform is based on the
issues of the national debt,
health care and the state of
the economy, f le promises to
solve these problems through
various methods. His
promises, however, do not
carry much weight with the
12
American people right now.
Most likely, this is because he
went back on his promise of
"no new taxes."
Additionally, President Bush
even termed himself "the
education president," but
failed to deliv'er in that area
as well. In his latest
campaign speech. President
Bush asked the American
public for four more years to
try again. Most people do
not want to give him that
chance.
Pat Buchanan is also
campaigning for the
Republican party
nomination. People respect
him most for his campaign
strategy centered around
President Bush's broken "no
new taxes" promise.
Reaction to these ads was the
same with everyone 1 spoke
to - "it's too bad a Democrat
didn't get a hold of this idea
first." Maybe in a few years,
when he has more political
experience, Buchanan will be
a healthy contender for the
Republican nomination.
The Democrats have
long been under public
scrutiny. Most of their
problems lie with the fact
that they lack viable
candidates that the public can
respect. The Democrats
almost always seem to be the
underdogs. At the
has overcome these obstacles.
As it was expected Tsongas
did have a strong showing in
the Northeastern primaries,
but it was Clinton who swept
the southern primaries on
Super Tuesday. Jerry Brown
suffers from a problem
similar to that of Paul
Tsongas, a lack of name
recognition. Despite the more
preferable stances he may
take on certain issues, in his
quest to please the "little
people," he is sometimes
accused of neglecting the
views of the majority.
Another candidate,
Ralph Nader, has chosen to
run on the none of the above
platform. He is attempting to
get a void election by
convincing people to vote for
no one, so new candiciates
will be forced to enter the
election. Although people
like his ideas, they are not
sure if they want to take the
i course of action he suggests.
In one sense, Mr. Nader could
jalmost be compared to an
’accident on the freeway. One
f those incidents where
everyone wants to see the
ause of the commotion, but
no one really wants to get
involved.
It seems as if the list
of candidates has run out.
However, despite our
dissatisfaction with the pool
of candidates, we are still left
with an election, so we will
have to make some sort of
decision. IS there a candidate
available to lead us away
from this present state of
disarray? Oh well, there is
always 1996...

Senior Myths
\A/^ e came to Merrimack naive freshmen, unaware of what lay ahead. As orientation waned and classes began, reality
hit. This was to be a long, difficult journey, complete with obstacles for us to dodge and hurdles to jump.
VVe continued our academic pursuit, and somewhere along the way, lost what sense of reality we had. Anxiously
awaiting our senior year, we anticipated an easy finish to our college careers. This was not to be, however, as senior year has
arrived and our fairy tale worlds have been shattered once more...
Senior year is anything but easy. Just ask the members of the class of 1992. As seniors we are subjected to seminars,
directed studies, internships, student teaching and courses required to complete our curriculum, such as business policy. These
all require large amounts of our time and energy.
How could one possibly think her last semester would be easy? 'T only have three classes. I'll have plenty of free time."
Combine those three classes with a twenty hour a week internship, part time employment and participation in campus
organizations and you'll soon see the error of your ways, as well as the meaning of sleep deprivation.
Even classes that are termed "blow offs" are not easy. The professors are often unorganized and uninspiring. They fail
to provide a learning environment, often not even passing out a syllabus. How are we to manage our time effectively if our
professors do not cooperate by providing a schedule for exams and papers?
In addition to our academic workload, seniors must plan for their future. There are resumes to be prepared, interviews
to go on, entrance exams to be taken and applications to be filled out. We are constantly plagued by inquiries about our future
plans - "What are you doing after graduation?" "1 don't know yet. I'm only 21 - you expect me to have my entire life planned
out already?" This is exactly what is expected of us. We are either to have a job lined up or have been accepted to law school
or a graduate program, all well before spring break rolls around. We are to have our lives planned out, as if that's possible, and
are met with disapproving looks when we express our uncertainty.
With all of these responsibilities and pressures, when is one to find time for even a moderate social life? After all, senior
year is all fun and games, isn't it? . , „ „

The Road Not Taken
Two roads diverged in a yellow wood.
And sorry 1 could not travel both
And be one traveler, long 1 stood
And looked down one as far as 1 could
To where it bent in the undergrowth;
Then the other, as just as fair.
And having perhaps the better claim.
Because it was grassy and wanted wear;
Though as for that, the passing there
Had worn them really about the same.
And both that morning equally lay
In leaves no step had trodden black.
Oh, I kept the first for another day!
Yet knowing how way leads on to way,
I doubted if I should ever come back.
I shall be telling this with a sigh
Somewhere ages and ages hence:
Two roads diverged in a wood, and I -
I took the one less traveled by.
And that has made all the difference.

President's Address
Dciir Members of the Class of 1W2:
It is a pleasure to have this opportunity to address you on the publication of the 1992 Yearbook. Your theme of On
the Roiui to Success is one that is indeed very fitting. All of us are on journeys going from our origins to our final destiny.
I n the course of that journey, there are many challenges. There are hopes opportunities, disappointments, joys and sorrows.
All of them are true experiences which, though sometimes painful, make us better men and women in life's journey.
At Merrimack College, we hope that your four years of education challenged you to develop your full potential
intellectually, physically, and spiritually. We, at Merrimack, hav'e endeavored to give you educational experiences which
will make you a sensitive and caring person.
As you leave Merrimack College and beginto pursue your life in a career, building a family and home or wherever
your journey takes you, it is my wish for you that you will find sweet joys and sustenance in your friends and family and
in the community that you have built here at Merrimack. We believe that we have taught you well the skills you need in
order to be successful in a career. But, most importantly, we hope that we have broadened your horizons to look within
yourself in order to bring out of yourself those strengths that are needed to make your life truly one of quality. There is an
old adage that Life is to be Lived and not Endured, and I believ'e this is true; however, if we are to live a quality life, we really
need to contemplate what it is all about. What are the things that really are of value to us. What is it that we really want
to do with our lives. They say that among students of the 90s there is a rebirth of v'olunteerism, a keener sense of the need
to serve one another. 1 believe that this is true especially of your class. You have taken the opportunity to reach out to the
poor and homeless, those who are afflicted by diseases and addictions; you have taken the time to reflect upon the issues
of the times; to be more aware of people and of their orientations and of their needs and struggles. You have made it known
that you are willing to be of help to make this a better world. I know that as you go forth from this College, you will indeed
make a difference because you understand a life that is lived, must be lived in reflection of values and goals. You are on
your road to success because you have understood that life is much more than any one event, one triumph. It is the
combination of many things and these many things, of course, in their totality are what makes it all worth while. You should
be excited about the opportunities that are yours in the decade of the 90s.
1 salute you on the successes that you have already accomplished on your journey, and ask that God will bless you,
and your future endeavors. I am sure that if you are faithful to the values that were instilled in you by your parents and
were nurtured by this College, that you will indeed have a successful journey. 1 urge you to go forth on your restless
journeys seeking always truth- the truth that St. Augustine so sought; the truth that he believed would certainly lead to
wisdom, which is God.
Sincerely,
Rev. John E. Deegan, O.S.A.
In Loving Memory
Antonio Chiello
Antonio's love and friendship is embodied and will continually grow in the roots of a tree planted in his
memory. As its' branches grow outward, we will remember the popwer with which he embraced and wel-
comed those he met. Its' roots will grasp onto the nurturing soil, and fertilize our futures with spring bloom.
A scholarship has also been established in Antonio's memory.
Amava tuuti ed era amato da tutti. Ariverderci.
Your friends
Nature first green is gold,
her hardest hue too hold,
her hearly leaf's a flower;
but only so an hour.
Then leaf's subsides to leaf,
So eden sank to grief,
so dawn goes down today.
Nothing gold can stay.

As a resident of Gonic, New
Hampshire this fifth-year co-op
student has made the most of his
time spent here. David was a finance
major with an economics minor. He
chose to come to Merrimack College
because he used to live in the area
when he was younger and he liked
it. Beyond David's hectic academic
schedule, he also found the time to
become involved in many
organizations. He is a member of
Omicron Delta Epsilon, the
Economics Honor Society, and the
Co-op Council. David has also
received several academic
scholarships and the Financial
Executive Institute Award for his
outstanding accomplishments.
David feels Coop makes you v'ery
mature and makes you take
responsibility. One thing it has
shown him is that, "if there is a job
out there that you want, then it is up
to you to go get it. You can't rely on
anyone else to get it for you. Co-op
has given me confidence, but made
me realize my limitations." David's
advice to incoming and current
students is to really get involved in
something. There are many
organizations on campus that are
v'ery rewarding. David explains,
"there is so much more to college
than just books, papers and tests."
He believes that Merrimack really
fosters that and it gives you a life
long relationship with people.
One thing that David would like to
see at the college is a greater level of
attention given to students' needs.
He feels that many times academic
and personal needs are overlooked.
Finally, David would like to thank a
couple of people for making his
college career a successful and
rewarding time. Thank-you to:
Neil, for helping him be successful
in co-op; Dr. Laramie and Prof.
Quinn, for challenging him to
realize his academic potential; his
friends at Merrimack for the good
times; Nancy for all her support;
his brother and sister; and,
especially his parents for the
sacrifices they made so that he
could go to college.

carnival became a reality in April of 1992. As part
of Spring Week, Eiesta Shows put on an incredibly
successful carnival. Brought about by Chrissy's
hard work, the carnival will be an annual event.
Chrissy's work as class president is another of her
contributions to Merrimack College. One of the
traditions started when Chrissy served as President
was the Superbowl Sunday Party, which has
become an annual event.
Chrissy received an award for Outstanding
Leadership in 1990. She has also worked in the
Security office for three years.
When asked about obstacles facing Merrimack,
Chrissy pointed out the financial difficulties the
school is facing, citing the recent layoffs as an
example. She also believes the cost of education is
an obstacle for many. She believes Merrimack
needs more activities to attract students, as well as
special academic programs, such as an honors
program.
Chrissy would like to thank Professors Rich Duval
and Quinn for their assistance through difficult
times, as well as their help in her decision making
and their friendships. She would also like to thank
the individuals in the security office "for everything
they've done for me and all their support."
"Thanks to my roommates, Maura, Marion and
Paula, for their support and friendship. We've
been through a lot. Thanks for making all our
stupid A5 tricks possible."
"Thank you Mom and Dad for supporting and
encouraging my decision to come to school despite
my illness. Thank you for lef ting me make my own
decisions and for standing behind me in those
decisions."

NIKE says “Just Do It.." REEBOK
says "Play I lard.." Phil Bellissimo
says "Get I lungry-"
Phil Bellissimo is an international
business major from Manhasset,
Long Island. He has contributed
his time and effort to various
components of Merrimack
College. A Cooperative
Education student, he has run
Cross Country, been a member of
the Orientation Committee, and
served on the M.O.R.E. Council.
Through his membership of the
Nu Phi Kappa fraternity he has
serv'ed as the Chairman for the
Party for Panama and has also
spent time involved with the
related program in which they
bowl with retarded citizens.
Reflecting upon these
memberships, he holds his
position in the fraternity in a
special regard. "Through the
fraternity I have done so much. .It
has made me. The influence of
the members has prov'en to be an
effectiv'e foundation for my
schooling." He will also always
view his membership in the
Athletic program in a special light.
"Participatmn in Cross Country
gave me a sense of confidence
and pride., to be able to say that I
went out and ran ten miles.." On
the other hand, he will view his
membership in the Cooperative
Education program as a
rewarding challenge. It wasoften
brutal being in the classrooms
during those hot summer days
and he would like to thank
Michael Provenzano for all of his
support.
As Merrimack moves towards the future, Phil would like to sc^e the
Administration listen to the more sensible ideas of the students. After all,
"we are paying to go here, and if our ideas are not just silly and pointless,
we should be respected, listened to, and treated like adults." Phil would
also like to urge the underclassmen not to "judge a book by its cover." Give
everyone a fair chance and don't ever judge too quickly.
Phil would like to thank the brothers of his fraternity for their friendship
and support. Specifically, he would like to thank Georgie C. and .Marc
Blanchard. 1 le would also like to thank Professor Kandra for influencing
him and showing him that sometimes it is not just the grade, but the
personality in the student that counts. He would also like to give special
thanks to both of his parents for their endless support.

Sharon Chin is just one of those
people that can make you smile on
even your worst day. It is rare to see
her in anything less than a sparkling
mood.
A participant in the Cooperative
Education program, Sharon leaves
Merrimack College with both her
Bachelor of Science degree in
Business Administration with a
concentration in marketing and a
lifetime of memories.
In addition to serving as secretary of
the Class of 1991 for two years, she
was also a sister in the SPO sorority,
and on the Editorial staff of the
yearbook. Sharon explains, "I was
most proud of my role on the Class
Council. In that role, I got to have a
say in what went on in the entire
college community, unlike SPO,
when it was just what went on within
our sorority." Considering these
activities, it should be no surprise
that Sharon advises underclassmen,
"Get involved.. Try to be a part of
something because that is how you
get to know more students, faculty,
and staff."
Sharon was drawn to Merrimack for
reasons similar to many other
members of the class. "I am from the
Merrimack valley area. 1 have known
of Merrimack for some time.. It was
close., but far enough so 1 could live
there."
In her days at Merrimack, two of her
Marketing professors have left long
lasting impressions: Professor Stasio
and Dr. Corbett. "Professor Stasio
for showing us the importance of
discipline and Dr. Corbett for always
sharing his outside, practical
experiences."
Sharon would like to thank her
friends- "the fluffernutter crew"
for always being there. She
would also like to thank her
parents, her brother, and her
sister for being a loving and
caring family.

very occupied at Merrimack.
His involvements include
Sargent at Arms and Historian
of TKE, a Eucharistic Minister,
member of the Accounting and
Einance Society and team
leader in the M.O.R.E.

from Primos, Pennsylvania. He
is grateful that he has gained
valuable friendships and a
good business background.
Rich explains, "You have to
have a balance between
school and your social life.
It is hard at times, but get
involved, cion' t be a number,
meet people." Rich is
enrolling in graduate
schools where he hopes to
receive an MBA and,
hopefully, to someday open
up his own CPA firm.

An english major from
North Reading, Brian
Courtemanche spent most
of his time at Merrimack
working on the Argus,
where he served as Editor
in Chief and News Eciitor.
Brian would like to be an
author of fiction and short
stories, but his ultimate
dream is to become a
published writer and teach
at a college. Of course,
before doing this, Brian
wants to see more of the
world and be able to share
his experiences with others
in his future novels.
Brian says that college has been
a happy environment especially
since he met his girlfriend Kelly
here. "College is an expensive
dating service."
Brian would like to see more
preparation for graduate schools
done so students would have a
smoother transition into this
stage of their development. He
would also like to see Co-op for
Liberal Arts students.
Brian urges students, "Get

Deborah D'Agati is a local girl from
Andover. She wasalways impressed
with Merrimack ev^en in high school.
As an english major, she has used
her writing ability to the fullest. She
is a member of the English Club, is
involved in the writing center, writes
many pieces for the Alternative Voice
and is the Editor of the Argus.
As a graduating senior, she would
like to pass along some advice to
those incoming freshmen, “get
involved as much as you can, four
years is a long time to be some place-
you might as well make yourself at
home. Get to know a lot of people
and learn the art of discipline."
Deb would like to go on and teach
English after she receives her Masters
degree. Over the years some of the
people who have made an impact on
Deb's life are: Dr. Branca, Dr.
Mahoney, and Dr. DeCiccio. She
feels each gave her the incentive to
be an english major and to continue
on to graduate school. Deborah
would also like to thank financial
aid, without whom she wouldn't be
here. Last, but not least, she wishes
to thank her parents.

Pete Davis is a resident of
Framingham, Massachusetts.
While at Merrimack, Pete has
been a member of the
Lacrosse team and a member
of the American Marketing
Association. He has grown
to really like the students here
and describes the student
body as "a good mixture of
people."
Although Pete has enjoyed
his Merrimack years, he does
feel certain problems should
be addressecf. First and
foremost, he believes that the
school must overcome the
obstacle of the Lawrence
Eagle Tribune. "We get too
much bad publicity from the
Tribune." Second, he
identifies the lack of social
events sponsored for the
students. "Even schools of
our size, such as Saint
Michaels or Saint Anselms do
more in this area." Einally, he
would like to see more
support given to the athletic
teams. "A lot of stucients just
don't support their peers."

What three words does Todd
Delvecchio choose to liv'e by?
Persistence. Determination.
Improvisation. Todd explains, "You
need to have the ability to keep
plugging away despite negative
answers. You may get a million
'No's,' but ycm have to keep going."
Todd's persistance and
determination to succeed has
definitely kept him busy over the
past few years. In 1986, he began a
business: Blue Water Irrigation,
which installed irrigation systems
for both residential and commercial
outlets. While working for a
dev'eloper, Todd got various leads
for potential business opportunities,
and eventually would see his
business blossom at a rather
reputable rate, to eventually reach a
point where it could support his
academic pursuits. Here on campus,
Todd has worked with v'arious
administrators on a wide array of
projects. As a freshman, he worked
with the Assistant to the Academic
Vice-President on the study abroad
program. As a sophomore, he
worked with the Dean of the College
on various computer programs. He
has also worked as a resident
assistant and has been a member of
the American Society for Civil
Engineering. Through these
experiences Todd has learned a
valuable lesson: "Never tell someone
else what to do - unless you are fully
prepared to do it yourself."
When this resident of Winchester,
Massachusetts first came to
Merrimack, he had planned on being
a marketing major. After completing
his freshman year, however, Todd
re-evaluated the direction of his
studies and decided to transfer into
the civil engineering program. Todd
defied the odds, and managed to
complete an extremely demanding course load of work in three years. It wa*'
a definite challenge to successfully complete such a highly structurec
curriculum in such a disrupted order. In some cases, Todd was taking hispre
requisites after the classes they were supposed to precede.
Todd identifies somedefiniteobstaclesthat Merrimack will facein the future
enrollment and financial costs. It will be a constant challenge to attrac
students as the pool of applicants dwindles down and costs continue to rise
I le would also like to see both the Placement Office and the Alumni Directo
at .Merrimack re-evaluate the present networking system. Communicatioi
must be improved, for in these rather horrible economic times students neec
help finding jobs.
When Todd leaves Merrimack, he hopes to obtain employment in a smal
engineering firm. He would like to be involved with environmental
geotechnical - hazardous waste work.
Todd would like to thank his friends and his family for their support.

Grog Diidzic was born in I lamilton,
Ontario in 1969. Two years later, his
family moved to Southbury,
Connecticut, where he has lived ever
since.
Greg decided to attend Merrimack
for many of the same reasons as the
rest of us. 1 le liked the fact that it
was a small Catholic school, he liked
thearea,and heliked theCooperative
Education program. He is a dual
major of management and religious
studies. This summer Greg will
continue his education at Merimack
to gain a Bachelor's degree in
religious studies.
Admittedly, Greg has never had an
easy time making friends. He
explained that he has always felt
rather alienated. While participating
in the OnStagers he has found things
to be somewhat different, howev'er.
With this group, he has been able to
relax anci be himself. He has always
enjoyed the theatrical environment.
He was especially flattered when, at
the OnStager's banquet this year, a
toast was made in his honor and he
received a standing ovation for his
contributions to the organization.
Greg concluded his interview by
explaining, "The road to success isn't
the easiest road, nor the fastest road.
There will always be difficulties and
obstacles to face, but to survive them
and press forward is what success is.
Success is the feeling of
accomplishment that comes after a
hard and difficult struggle. Tc^
succeed one must proceed ever
forward to face the future with an
open heart and an open
mind.. willing to change and to
grow."

Christine Dufresne chooses

Association, has held an E-
Board position in Sigma Phi

photographs for the

involved.

challenges faced by Merrimack, she explained the
"continuous need for more people to get involved.
No matter what an individual chooses, whether it
be supporting a sport, or becoming active in a club,
students need to show a commitment."
One personal obstacle overcome by Christine
revolved around her desire to study abroad. As an
international business major, she believed a semester
abroad would be extremely beneficial.
Unfortunately, when she began to investigate the
program, she learned that financial aid is not offered
for overseas studies. She was determined to go, and
in the end, her persistence would be rewarded. She
financed the trip herself, felt an even greater sense
of accomplishment, and truly enjoyed her experience
in Spain.
Christine would like to thank the Financial Aid
Office and the Academic Vice-President's Office for
all of the help she has received over the years.
Additionally, whe would like to thank Professor
Quinn and Professor Rich-Duval.

be a part of the co-op program, Pat
also has this bit of advice to pass
along, "Be creative and get
involved."
As a fifth-year student, he is
frustrated with student involvement
on campus. 1 le feels people are
apathetic and hypocritical. The
memories that he takes away with
him are the ones that he made by
being a part of the social activities on
campus.
Patrick just "wants to be out there

And a special thank you to his mom

Leanne Garvey is a
psychology major who hails
from Westborough,
Massachusetts. While at
Merrimack, Leanne has
contributed serious time
and effort to various campus
organizations. She has
worked as an Orientation
Coordinator for the
Orientation Committee, has
enjoyed the experience of
beingonaM.O.R.E. Retreat
team, and has been a
member of the Psychology
Club. She will always
remember her participation
on the retreat team as one of
her best experiences at
Merrimack, and would like to
thank the "Dream Team" for
the wonderful memories. At
the same time, she believes that
her greatest overall
contribution to Merrimack
came from the hard work she
put into the Orientation
program. "I put a great deal
into it.. 1 was careful never to
short change it."
Like many of us, Leanne was
attracted to Merrimack's small
campus. She liked the
seemingly pleasant nature of
the student body, for the positive attitudes, coupled
with the smaller size would facilitate the chances of
getting to know more people. Looking ahead, she
does believe that there are definite hurdles that
Merrimack must overcome. "The school must offer
more activities that please and interest a greater
percentage of the student population. This way,
more people will get involved."
Before leaving Merrimack, and entering the Boston
College School of Social Work in pursuit of her
Master's Degree, Leanne urges the underclassmen,
"Do everything you can. .this way, you get the most
out of it. Try to make the most of it all. It gets over
too fast."
Leanne would like to give special thanks to her
mother for always being there, and thanks her
roommates and friends for the great times; "YOU
GUYS ARE THE BEST!"

Merrimack. Throughout her four
years at Merrimack, Allison has been
a Eucharistic Ministerand a member

God grant me the serenity to

change, the courage to change
the things I can, and the icisd om
to know the difference.
Considering the various
leadership positions and
memberships that the rather
modest Paul Grenham can

couldn't have chosen a
better quote. He has
definitely made his mark
here at Merrimack. An
english major, with a minor

this resident of Avon,
Massachusetts has served on
the Orientation Committee, has
been a member of M.O.R.E.
Council, and has enjoyed the
position of being president of
his fraternity, Nu Phi Kappa.
Personally, he found his
participation on M.O.R.E.
council quite rewarding, while
his presidency of NPK was
special in a different respect,
for it allowed him to give back
that special something that the
fraternity had given him
throughout the years.

budget his time in a fashion that enabled him to be
a Co-Pounder of the Education Club, a Resident
Assistant and even a tutor in the Writing Center.
Paul would like to pass on his own words of wisdom
to the underclassmen. "Getting involved is the best
thing you can do. You have the opportunity to meet
a variety of people.. But, be sure to look out for
yourself- when you get tied down with too many
things it is easy to forget about yourself. Make
things you get involved in part of what you do, but
save time for yourself."
Paul would like to thank the Campus Ministry Staff,
the Writing Center Staff and Anne, Liz, Tammy,
Sharon, Sarah, Karin, T racey, Rob, Dave, Scott, Mike,
and the rest of his friends for their support and
friendship during his Merrimack years. These
people have definitely made his days at Merrimack
more enjoyable and more memorable.
He would also like to give a very special thanks to
his family: Tommy, Kathy, Lisa, Michael, and
"MOST OF ALL., to MOM for always being there
and for making the sacrifices that truly made this all
possible."

Four years ago, Liz 1 lamp did not
really know if she even wanted to go
to College. She waited until the last
minute to begin the application
process. None of the initial schools
that she visited really managed to
stir her emotions. Over and over she
was left with the same sort of
impression, “It was nice, but..." But
then, as a last resort, she came to look
at Merrimack. One person took two
seconds to simply say, “Hi, how are
you doing?" It was a small, rather
insignificant exchange, but there was
something about the friendliness of
the people, as well as a definite
charm, that attracted Liz to our little
school on Turnpike Street.
Undoubtedly, this english major
from Maine made the right decision
to pursue a collegiate education. One
of the founding members of the
Education Club, this sister of Xi
Lambda Psi has also been involved
with M.O.R.E. and the Orientation
Committee.
Despite the various charms of
Merrimack, Liz does identify areas
in which it could benefit by
improvement. She would “like to
see Merrimack incorporate greater
diversity among the people who go
here, while keeping it small enough
to maintain the qualities that
attracted the bulk of the people who
go here in the first place." Liz would
also like to see more women in
administrative positions and in
tenured positions on the faculty.
Liz urges the underclassmen, “Keep
everything in perspective. Work
hard when it's time to work hard.
When it's not time to, do something
else."
In closing, Liz would like to thank
the “grossly unrecognized" faculty
of the English Department for going
the extra mile, and being truly dedicated to the
well-being of the students. Specifically, she
would like to extend thanks to “the benevolent
and kind advisor that she was blessed with;
Mary K. Mahoney." Additionally, she would
like to thank her roommates and closest friends,
Tammy and Anne for all of their support. To
her parents, she offers the most special thanks.
“Mom and Dad have always pushed me to be
the best, but have praised me for what 1 have
accomplished. They have constantly
encouraged me to perservere, and have
continuously supported me both financially
and emotionally."

Karen Johnson transferred
to Merrimack 2 and 1/2
years ago from what most
would consider a "perfect
school" with beautiful
facilities. Karen, however,
identified her "experiences
as rather hollow." As a
result, she would like to offer
a few words to the
underclassmen.. "It's easy
to complain about what
Merrimack doesn't have,
but all I can think of is what
it has given me. Merrimack,
has been for me, a wonderful
place to learn and grow as a
whole person."
A resident of Chelmsford,
Massachusetts, this
mathematics major and
education minor has
contributed significant time to
various organizations on
campus. She has served on
team for the M.O.R.E. retreat
program, has worked on the
yearbook, has been the class
secretary, has worked as a peer
tutor in the Math Center and
she has also earned the honor
of being recognized as a
Presidential scholar.
Additionally, she will be one

of the two recipients of the Joseph P. Daly Award.
Looking into the future, Karen believes that
Merrimack will need to address one recurring
problem: "Students want a wide variety of courses.
Perhaps Merrimack should consider beginning a
graduate school program." Karen has also faced
and overcome certain personal challenges. For
example, she learned how to stop complaining and
to ensure that actions be taken.. "Mountains can be
moved."
Karen would like to commend five Augustinians at
this school for doing so much for Merrimack, and
for adding so much: Father Patrick, Father Kevin,
Father Tom, Sister Flaine and Father Frank. Not
only have they given endless time and support to
the students, but they have also helped me establish
a "newfound confidence in my faith."
Karen would like to thank her mother and father for
their love, support, guidance and understanding.
Without the compilation of these, none of this could
be established. Next year at this time she would like
to be employed as a high school teacher.

Asa typical insecure freshman, Kate
Jones considered leaving school at
the end of the year. The Merrimack
College community ought to be glad
this psychology major from
Waterbury, Connecticut put those
feelings aside and returned to finish
her education. Kate has held
numerous leadership positions in her
four years at Merrimack, including
Secretary of Pi Theta Epsilon,
Secretary of the Psychology Club
and Vice President of S.O.A.R.
(Students Organized Against
Racism). She has also solicited ads
for the Merrimackan.
In August of 1991, Kate was forced
to deal with her father's untimely
death. Afraid to leave her mc')ther
and not wanting to hide her true
feelings in front of her friends, Kate
thought about attending a
community college close to home.
Her mother and friends encouraged
Kate to come back to Merrimack.
She remained strong and returned
for her senior year.
Kate believes that Merrimack could
improve itself through various
measures such as becoming more
involved with the community and
diversifving the curriculum.
Kate points out the racism on campus
and says that Merrimack ought to
offer programs to educate people.
She suggests a type of discussion or
forum to ease people's ignorance and
eliminate the use of stereotypes. She
also believes that Merrimack is a
sheltered environment. To help
overcome this, Kate thinks
Merrimack ought to diversify the
student population.
Kate's friends at home and school
have provided her with inspiration
and love. She has also been inspired
by her father. "1 le accepted me for
what I am and gave me courage. I
want to thank him for that." It was
thiscourage that Kate drew on at the
time of her Dad's death. Kate would
also like to thank her mother, whom
she describes as "incredibly strong.
I can only hope to be as strong willed,
supportive and caring a woman that
she is someday." "Thanks to Beth,
who has always been there for me."

Calvin Lyles was an
accounting major from
Somerset, New Jersey. He
had two goals when he
attended Merrimack
College and they were to
graduate and win a
Northeast-10
championship. He has been
an active member of the
basketball team both
physically and mentally.
The basketball team is very
involved with the Lawrence
Boy's Club and through this,
Calvin has developed great
relations with some of the
boys. Throughout his four
years here, he has also been
grateful for some strong
relationships built with some
of the faculty.
He would like to thank Prof.
Nelson, Prof. Quinn, Prof. Kay
and especially Prof. Satcher
who looked out for him and
guided him, and also his
teammates for being there
through rough and good times.
Calvin would like to see
Merrimack more diversified.

You don't a second chance to make a
first impression..
Most people that know him would
agree that his choice of this quote is
perfectly fitting. Walter Maganzini
hasaspecial flareforlife. "Naturally,
1 want people to like me, but after a
while you have to stop caring about
what other people think.. and care
more about what you think of
yourself."
Walter Maganzini is a management
major from Med ford, Massachusetts.
He has added his special touch to
various clubs and organizations.
Aside from participation in Cross
Country and the Ski Club, he has
been a member of the Orientation
Committee, on team and a team
leader in the M.O.R.E. program, the
treasurer of IFSC, and both vice
president and Pledge Master of Nu
Phi Kappa. Of these various
memberships, Walter is most proud
of his involvement in NPK. "It has
taught me the most. It has taught me
how to be a leader. Additionally, it
has shown me how to tackle different
problems."
One aspect of Merrimack that Walter
believes could be improved are the
leadership weekends. "Although
the program is great and it gives a
select group of kids the feeling that
they can make changes, Walter
would like to see the weekends
opened up to a few more people.."
Additionally, he feels "they need to
know when to see kids as adults and
when to see kids as kids. There is a
time and a place for everything."
Walter will fondly remember his
days at Merrimack. His special
memories are centered around the
Killington trips, his senior year spring break
in the Bahamas, and all of his other road trips
and adventures. "I've always had a lot of
friends here that are older than me (i.e..
George Clement) and I've learned a lot from
them. From day one, 1 made the friends that
I'm still friends with today. .it seems like we
just got here."
"1 would like to give special thanks to .Mom
and Dad for giving me the chance to do
everything they never got the chance to do."

Like so many of us, Mark
Pulaski was attracted to the
small class sizes offered at
Merrimack. He liked the
fact that he would be able to
enjoy plenty of personal
interaction with his teachers.
This resident of
Newburyport,
Massachusetts graduated
with a degree in electrical
engineering. During his
four years at Merrimack, he
was a member of the Men's
Basketball team and an
active member of The
Institute of Electrical and
Electronics Engineers. He
found his involvement with the
Basketball team to be most
rewarding. Specifically, he
enjoyed the outside programs
that the basketball team
provided: the tutoring
program with the Lawrence
Boys Club and the "Stay in
School" and anti-drug lectures
that the team would give in the
area grammar schools.
Undoubtedly, the most
memorable event during his
participation on the team was
the Northeast-10
Championship series.

Looking into the future, Mark would like to see
Merrimack become more culturally diversified. He
sees this as one of the greatest present obstacles the
school needs to overcome. For Mark, one of the
greatest personal challenges was learning to budget
his time between the practices, games and a very
difficult course load.
Reflecting upon his experience at Merrimack, Mark
says, "I never met anyone at Merrimack who wanted
to do anything but help me." He would like to
thank his coaches, teammates, his friends and his
family for their support throughout the past four
years. Heather Fleming

As a freshman. Dawn
Sinsigalli knew that she
really wanted to get
involved. "At times 1 was
impulsive, but eventually, 1
learned the importance of
balance." She has been an
active member on the
Orientation Committee,
serving as both a junior and
a senior coordinator. She
remembers her experiences
in these positions as some of
the best she has had at
Merrimack. She has also
been a member of the
M.O.R.E. Council, which she
found equally rewarding.
Additionally, as a second
semester senior, she held the
position of Resident Assistant
at the Urban Institute facility
in Lawrence. A well-rounded
student, her placement on the
National Dean's List helps
prove her dedication to
academic excellence as well.
Dawn is a management major
from Haverhill, Massachusetts.
She has tried to give to
Merrimack and walk away
from Merrimack with as much
as possible. "My four years

growth.. I never learned as much in another four
year period of my life." However, like everything
else, Merrimack could benefit from improvement.
As Merrimack surges into the upcoming years, she
would like to see the faculty and administration
increase the synchronization of their efforts. "They
need synergy. The students should be treated more
like a customer than is typically the case."
Dawn urges underclassmen, when you want
something, go after it and just do it. "People should
always try to maximize their potential and never
stop the growth process that walks in step with that
of the learning process." She believes, "you can't
really give people advice.. They will do what they
want and make their own mistakes."
Dawn would like to thank the staff of Campus
Ministry, Chief Cain, her teachers and her friends
for their support and assistance over the years.
They have collectively made her stay far more
enjoyable and far more memorable. She would like
to give special thanks to her "friends and family for
their support, as well as all of the fun and good times
that have made Merrimack much more special."

As cl history nidjor, Karen Smith has
o\’ercome the pre-conceived notion
that haunts so many students- that
deeply imbedded belief that "1 must
graduate with a specific degree that
will get me a job." She no longer
feels it is necessary to defend her
choice to be a history major when
countless individuals ask her "What
can you do with that major??" She
realizes that she is not entirely sure
what she can do, but, just the same,
she is glad that she exhibited the
conficience to pursue it anyway.
Along with her history major, Karen
has a minor in religious studies. This
native of Bangor, Maine has been
involved with v^arious intramural
athletics here, as well Campus
Ministry's Peace and Social justice
Week, the Retreat Program, and
Merrimaction. She believes that the
Campus Ministry staff has played a
large role in her life during her days
at Merrimack. Not only have the
individuals made things far more
pleasant, but they have also taught
hera great deal about herself and the
people around her.
Looking into the future, Karen feels
that Merrimack will definitely face
its share of challenges. For example,
it will need to continue to strive
towards the creation of an overall
sense of community — not just
between all faculty-all
administration-and all students, but
between each of the groups. The
sizeable barriers need to be broken
down.
Karen cited one of St. Augustine's
quotes as one that is fairly
representative of her days at
Merrimack: "My friends have done
much to repair anci remake me." She
will always remember fondly the
impact that both Rob and Julie
have made on her life.
In closing, she would like to thank
her mother, father, Elaine, joe,
Patrick, Kevin, Maura and Frank
for their continuous support over
the past four years.

Rob Wilson is a political science
major and a European history minor
who hails from Bedford, New
1 lampshire. Rob has been an active
member of the Student Government
Association, M.O.R.E. Council, the
Orientation Committee and various
other committees. He has also been
recognized in Who's Who in
American Collegesand Universities.
1 le identifies one of his greatest
contributions to Merrimack as his
position c^n the Student Government
Association. "I worked hard to bring
services to campus. 1 hoped that
what 1 could bring would be used
and appreciated in the future."
Like others, Rob believes that
Merrimack will face certain obstacles
in the coming years. "College is
becoming more and more expensive.
As a result, there are less students
looking to attend . The rich can afford
school - the poor can't." He hopes
that the college will "continue to
excel in academics and will maintain
the Catholic identity that is
responsible for drawing many of us
to Merrimack."
Rob explained how certain role
models at Merrimack have helped
him to mature and become a better
person. "I have learned how to accept
people around me - even the people
1 may not agree with. 1 have learned
that, as much as it is sometimes
tempting, we can never just make
someone go away. We need to work
together."
Rob urges underclassmen, "Don't
be afraid to try anything. At least
you come away with an experience -
whether it be good, or bad, you will
learn something from it."
In closing, Rob would like to thank
the people in Campus Ministry, the
Writing Center Staff, and to offer an
extra-special thanks to Eather Patrick
for making the difference. "Thank-
you to my family- and those in
Campus Ministry who have worked
to preserve my sanity."

diversified group of students. Additionally, she
would like to see more student oriented activities
offereci. The final issue she believes Merrimack
needs to address is that of financial aid for transfer
students. The entire financial aid issue became one
of the greatest obstacles in Melissa's path on her
road to success. "Because of my financial situation,
1 didn't really know if 1 would be able to come back
junior year. It all became a constant battle."
Melissa advises underclassmen to always work hard .
"Set goals for yourself.. You can make them happen
if you work hard enough. With hard work, you can
succeed. 1 was an average student in high school,
but when I came here, I wanted to be better than
av^erage."
Melissa would like to thank all of her teachers for
their guidance and time. "All of my teachers said
they were there to help, and they meant it. On
various occasions, I took them up on their offers for
assistance and I learneci a great deal." Of course, she
also thanks her roommates and her friends for their
support. She would like to give special thanks to her
family, especially her parents and her boyfriend.
Next year at this time, Melissa hopes to be in a job
working with children, while studying Psychology
at the graduate lev^el. ,, , „

Class Gift
Dedication
With the hope of leaving a positive impression upon Merrimack
College, the Class of 1992 is proud to contribute a Victorian
Courtyard Clock to the Merrimack College Community. A dedi-
cation ceremony was held on Tuesday, May 5, 1992. At this time,
the clock was unv'eiled.
The clock has a double face, measures eleven feet tall and lights up
at night. It was manufactured by Verdin Company of Cincinatti,
Ohio, the oldest clock manufacturer in the world. The clock
stands in the middle of Gildea Plaza.
The class hopes that the clock will become a symbol for all current
and future students that our time here is very limited. We must
take advantage of our time at Merrimack, constantly working to
improve the condition of our community.
Over eighty five percent of the class contributed funds to make the
clock a reality. Such a high percentage shows that the Class of 1 992
has a great deal of unity. When we wanted to get something done,
we did it together. Thanks to all who helped with this project.

The Clambake took place onFriday, May 15 at the Cedardale facility in
Groveland. Around the grounds students enjoyed games of volleyball,
basketball, and miniature golf, while quenching their thirst with refresh-
ing frozen drinks and satisfying their hunger with succulent lobsters and
steamers. Surprisingly, some students were even brazen enough to dive
into the pool on the sunny, yet cool May afternoon.
Whether students were on the buses that made it there without a
problem, or, on the buses that took the more "scenic route," all who
attended had a fabulous time.

It's the end of the world as we know it...
have been the theme for senior week,
1 11 t's the end of the world as we know it and we feel fine" may
I 1 I ■■ but graduation would mark the beginning of the obstacles and good fortune yet to be encountered.
Graduation took place on a sunny Sunday, May 17, 1992. Excitement and tears filled the air as soon to
be graduates said good bye and toasted their college years to champagne.
The procession was headed by Chief Marshal, Dr. Ronald Pike, toward the Volpe Complex. Everyone had a smUe on their face and
cameras flashed as the students entered the decorated ice rink filled with more than 1,000 people. Pomp and Circiimstance was played
by the ba nd as the students marched down the aisle toward s their seats . Sister Eileen began the ceremony with an opening prayer followed
by Dayna DTtria who sang The National Anthem.
The Honorary Degrees were then presented to three outstanding individuals. Joseph A. Graziano of Apple Computer, an alumni of
Merrimack received a Doctor of Commercial Science. Jack Williams of WBZ, Channel 4 received a Doctor of Humane Letters. He was
praised and recognized for his service to the Boston community, especially his role in the development of Wednesday's Child. Ernest
Boyer also received a Doctor of Education for his top selling book. College. At the conclusion of these presentations, the beach balls
appeared. The most important concerns in our minds appeared to be trying to keep the beach balls in the air and whether or not the Celtics
would win.
Before the address to the graduates, Michael Reynolds sang the Merrimack Alma Mater. Next, Jack Williams approached the
microphone and opened with a quote that "1992 graduates face the worst job market ever." However, he assured the men and women
that change will continue and we should achieve our goals. He also told the graduates that there is a successful formula in life and if we
concentrate on it, we will overcome obstacles and reach our goals. First, we should decide what we really want, ask ourselves what are
my dreams? Then, believe in ourself, be motivated and do not fear failure. Mr. Williams closed with a valuable quote form George Shaw,
"^me people see things as they are and say why. 1 dream things that never work and say why not."
The moment everyone was waiting for was finally here...THE DEGREES!!! Students walked across the stage with looks of
accomplishment and relief. "I made it! 1 have a diploma to prove it.!"
Cheryl Kristina DiMatteo then gave her Valedictorian speech and urged the students to make a difference. "We cannot fear change.
We must embrace change and try to address problems such as racism."
A few more awards were to be given out before the members of the class of 1992 would become alumni. Dr. Naylor of the History
department received the Edward G. Roddy, Jr. Outstanding Teacher of the Year Award, and a handful of seniors received awards for
outstanding service and top ranking m the different departments.
Looking back, the time spent at Merrimack provided many friendships, struggles and most of all ,memories..

his spring, while most of our friends
traveled south to warmer waters, six-
teen Merrimack students, along with
Professor Cathy Rich-Din al, traveled
to Italy to not only learn about foreign
business practices and customs, but to also
explore the wonders of Rome, Florence, Milan
and Venice.
While we were in Italy, the Comparitive
■Marketing class had the opportunity to meet
with Alitalia Airlines, 11 Papiro (giftware),
and Consortium de Prosciutto Di Parma (Pro-
sciutto). Our interaction with these compa-
nies provided us with an inside look at the
difference between European and American
practices in marketing.
Our trip was not only business, but also a
great deal of fun! In Rome we had the chance
to visit the Trev Fountain, Piazza Navona, St.
Peter's Square, The Pantheon, The Spanish
Steps, and The Coliseum, while also being
able to enjoy a great deal of wonderful shopping and
exquisite dining. In Venice we explored the Grand Canal
anci its waterways. WealsosawtheBridgeofSighs,as well
as the Island of San Giorgio. In Milan we realized that the
sights were endless as we saw the Duomo Cathedral,
Piazza della Scala, and took in the beauty of Leonardo da
Vinci's painting of "The Last Supper."
The trip is definitely something we will never forget.
We made wonderful friends, explored breathtaking sights,
and created an increciible memory.

SiSenv ■ Members t)f the Ci\'il Engintvring department. 'Jifght [>. Ronald Pike of the
Chemistry department leads the Class of 1^2 in their walk to Volpe Complex.
Icame to .N/IeTrinvick College in 1%5. 1 was hired asChairman of
the Chemistry Department.
At first, a decided lack of up-to-date equipment, especially in the
iiistnimentation-analytical area. Tlie department was truly 20
years behind the times. It has been a continuous struggle to
maintain a mcxlem, di\'erse instrumental program. Ttxiay we
have excellent facilities and 1 would rate our position as tops
among undergraduate institutions across the country in this
area. Unfortunately, o\'er the years, key indi\rduaLs in the
administration l'ia\'e not had the \'ision nor the understanding to
assist the department m this \'ital area. In one instance, u'e were
ad\rsed not to submit a grant application since we might not get
the award!! (We did on both counts!) In another instance, we
were told bluntly, that since we had obtained two NSF matching
grants the year before we were ad vised not to write another grant
request because, if obtained, it wouldn't be matched by the
College. This type of pliilosophy of "tliinking small" has been
one of the major obstacles placed in our path o\'er the years.
Truthfully, in this area I'v'e surmounted what personal obstacles
have been placed in my path. Being an eternal optimist, 1 tend not
to dwell on the difficult blows life has dealt me, but rather focus
on solutions with a positix^e hope for the future. .Mv teacliing
career has been an extremely rew'arding, fulfilling experience. Of
course, to see the development of tlie microscale concept of
laboratory instruction take hold and grow bevond our wildest
dreams is one of the many highlights I'v'e experienced.
Major — to learn to manage time effectiv’ely and set priorities. To
realize these four spent at Merrimack are the ones tliat can make
the future a rewarding and fulfilling experience. Top prioritv' is
study, study, and more study with ahvays attention to detail.
Certainlv, many hav’e to w'ork, but if so, a used car and p>eanut
butter sandwiches along with sacrifice need to be tlie bvword.
Also, a major obstacle for many students is to learn not to gi\’e up
when the road is uphill and difficult. Two words suffice:
perseverance and diligence. If practiced, anvtliing is possible.
Unfortunately, many students have not developed this attribute.

I canie to Merrimack directly from graduate school GJ. of Notre
Dame) in 1 975 and have taught here e\'er since. 1 ha\'e
also taught at Bradford College in Bradford, .MA as ■
w'ell as the Uni\'ersit\' of Peradeniya in Kandy, Sri
Laiika and theUni\’ersit\' of Hawaii, thebranch campus
at Hilo, Hawaii. Teacliing at these different schools
has given me some persjaective on learning at
Merrimack.
1 find the students at Merrimack to be (on the whole
and with many qualifications) serious about getting
their degree. Tlieir attitude is often one of dogged
determination - a steady sense of purpose and a fear of
failure motix'ates them to keep plugging until all the
chores witliinchoresarecompleted and all thehurdles •
surmounted . Tliere are students like this e\ ery\vhere
1 have taught - Merrimack is not unique in tliis \N’ay.
But what is often inissing here which 1 have seen to be
more e\ident at other schools is a sense of joy about the
process of education itself. The delight tliat can come j
when there is a sense of personal limitation melting :|
down torev'eala \'astnewhorizon,acertain intoxication i
of spirit - that often seems to be missing. Education '
requires intensive work if it is to be culti\’ated well, of
course, but if tliere is no sense of a higher unifying purpose, then ,
nothing is left but leaden drudgerv. Education is not merely a >
preparation for life, it is life witli its deeper meanings exposed for
those who would kxik. Insights and clear \Tsion lead to wisdom;
wisdom leads to mercv and compassion w'hich in turn lead to
inspired, sensitive acrion.
May all students e\’erywhere be happy!

I came to Merrimack in Fall 1987 with the near term gcwl of
increasing the number of Infonruition Systems elc‘cti\'es offercti bv
the Management Department and the longer term goal of creating
an InformationSystemsconcentration within the Business Division.
The greatest obstacle has bcvn the huge cost of computer hardware
w’henenvlsionc'd in temrsof multiplebbsand faculty office machines.
We have a new' computer lab in O'Reilly this fall which is used bv *
the Businc'ss, Engineering, and Computer Science classes although
it is open to all students. 1 hope that a second CX3S based lab will be '
available by next year. In my teacliing career the greatest obstacle j
hasbcvn my reluctance to turn my attention from teacliingactivities, j
such as exp)erimenting with new methcxis, student projects, course ^
dc'sign,and leamingnew'softwaretowardsresearchingand writing ,
for publication. 1 w’as draw'll to Merrimack because of its well-
justified reputation as a teaching-oriented school.
All college students face a myriad of obstacles in the path of their '
education. Oneobstacle is failing to take the Merrimack educational
experience seriously enough. 1 do sometimes observ'e
that students do themselves a disservice w'hen they
allow their jobs to take prioritv' ov'er their academic
activities. You can only learn from a course in i
proportion to your individual effort and participation >
in the activities of the course.

I came to Merrimack College in 1985. The most
diffiailt obstacle I faced was contending with the
tenure process. Many demands were made wliich
diverted much time and energy from my teaching
duties. To balance tliis teiision rec|uired difficult
decisions with their many trade-ohs. My main
objecti\'e was to have the majority of those trade-offs
favor the classroom, rmnotsureifisucceeded. Other
obstacles include acceptance in the Merriniack
connnunity, which involved overcoming indmdual
prejudices and group stereotypes. This process, I
might add, contiiuies.
Oiie major obstacle 1 have faced in my career is
leaniing to work wdth rather than against myself.
Each dme a barrier was encountered, 1 found it to be
nothing more than my attitude toward that barrier
that created the real problem. Tlie solution always
began with me.
Merrimack students face many challenges in their
acadeniic and professional careers. Learning to handle
large amounts of informatton and make effective
decisioiis are some of the major challenges. Others
include becoming independent arid critical tliinkers
and competent problem-solvers. These skills, iri order to be
developed, require hard work, diligence, and a fierce determination
to succeed. It's a life long challenge that never ends.

Sports
I
Cross Country
Jlains, sprains, blood, sweat and tears are all part of Cross
Country. Overshadowed by the popularity of other sports at
Merrimack, many students are unaware of its existence. What it
lacks in popularity it makes up for in difficulty. Three out of the
five weekdays the team would run distances totaling thirty five
miles. The other two weekdays were left for speed work, which
consisted of hill work and running repetitive timed half and full
miles as fast as possible. Saturday was race day (ugh), between
three and five miles of rough hilly terrain in some of the worst
weather you could imagine.
Why would someone participate in such a sport, you may ask?
The challenge of getting into shape, improving your race times
and yes, the lure of winning a trophy are all valid reasons. This is
why Cross country is depicted as an individual sport. On the
contrary, each person ran hard for the team. We shared the
sadness when we lost a crucial teammate to a broken leg and
happiness when each of us finished the last race. Our goal this
year was to build a team. We accomplished that, albeit with a
losing record. The team looks forward to next year, although we
will sorely miss seniors Phil Belissimo and Bob Macleish, who
have been dedicated team members for the past three years.

Golf
TThiiigs Gin Duly get better tor the Merrimack
College C'lolt team. Of the ten players on this year's
team, six were freshmen. Leading the pack was Fric
Mcl’hail, who was the low shooter in five of
Merrimack's matches. 1 lis scores ranged from a 74
against Boston University to an 83 against Lowell.
The team finished with an overall record of 4-4. The
four victories were at Boston University, Babson,
Worcester Tech and A.l.C. In the victorious matches,
Eric McPhail had the lowest score against Boston
University and Babson, and senior JP Guerin scored
lowest against Worcester Tech and A.l.C.
With such a young squad, the golf team has the
potential to be a contender in the NE-10 Conference
within a few seasons.

ILhe 1991 Men’s Soccer team got off to a strong start at the UNH
tournament. Merrimack tied Providence College 1-1 . They also tied
Division I UNH.
The team finished with an overall record of 9-7-3. They “couldn’t get
the big game,” with the exception of Stonehill. Goaltender Kevin
Kirkpatrick stopped a sure goal single handedly to keep the game
scoreless. Late in double overtime, Justin Cook scored off of Eric
Lusignan’s pass to cinch the win for Merrimack. It was a great win for
the Warriors as Stonehill went on to win the NE-10 Conference
Championship.
An obstacle faced by the 1 99 1 Soccer team was the lack of cooperation
and support from the administration. The field was not cut, nor the
equipment repaired. They promised the team a scoreboard, but
never delivered. On the list of sports priorities, it appears that soccer
is low on the administration’s list.
The team is losing five seniors this year - defensemen Robby
Sciaudone, George Boukouvalas, Tony Cracchiolo, Jim Kennedy
and goaltender Scott Metzger. The future of Merrimack Soccer looks
promising, however, as this year’s squad had 50% of the players on
the roster.

iihe Merrimack Women's Soccer team traveled on a windy
path in the fall of '91 , falling steps short of capturing the Northeast-
10 title. Springfield College upset the Lady Warriors 3-1 to end
the team's five year dynasty of championships. "When you're
the fastest gun in the west, everyone is out to beat you. Most
teams play their best games against us and there is no time to
slack," says eighth year coach Gabe Mejail.
After losing four starting players from last year's lineup, the
Lady Warriors were forced to quickly adjust to the new chemistry
on the field. They did just that and started the season by
defeating Division I opponent Holy Cross 3-2 in overtime.
Freshman Holly Corduck scored her first collegiate goal to
clinch the win for Merrimack.
Early heartbreaking losses to Northeast-1 0 opponents St. Anselm
and Springfield, however, convinced coach Gabe Mejail, assistant
coach Tom McHugh, the players as well as their parents and fans
that this season was going to be a bumpy ride with no time for
rest. "We had to be up for every game because there was no easy
competition. Every game was important and required 110%
from every player," stated senior Carol Marquardt, who, along
with Pam McBrien and Allison Taylor, served as team captain.
The Warriors' proudest accomplishment came in the closing
games of the season when they tied and then broke the NE-10
scoring record for most goals in a single season. The team scored
sixty goals, surpassing their prior record of fifty six goals.
Senior Janice Vendetti and Sophomore Allyson King shared
time in net. Vendetti ended her career with a goals against
average of 1.37 and a .804 save percentage. King closed the
season with a goals against average of 1 .51 and a save percentage
of .809.
Cathy Nagorski remained the Warriors' leading scorer for the
second season with twelve goals and five assists, earning 1st
team All new England as well as NE-10 All Star status. Junior
Sarah Boyd ended the season with five goals and ten assists,
making the All New England 2nd team, as well as earning NE-
10 All Star status. Junior defender Jen Harrington proved to be
a strong asset as she was recognized with All New England and
All Conference honors. Senior Captain Carol Marquardt matched
Boyd's scoring with five goals and ten assists, ending her career
with All Conference, All New England and Regional All American
accolades.
The team wishes the best of luck to graduating seniors Julie
Dadmun, Carol Marquardt, Pam McBrien, Jen Palmer, Jane
Schmiedel, Allison Taylor and Janice Vendetti. The Lady Warriors
also look ahead to next season which will be led by captains
Sarah Boyd, Jen Harrington and Michele Humphries, to recapture
the NE-10 title and continue the winning tradition of Merrimack
Women's Soccer.

Jlhe Merrimack Women's Tennis team started off the 1991 fall season under the coaching of Rick
Edelman. Coach Edelman has headed the men's team for the past years and was appointed as the
women's coach to replace former coach Sheryl Allen, who retired to concentrate on her full time
job. The women regretted losing her after her nine years of service, but welcomed the 360 degree
turnaround that lay ahead.
Coach Edelman worked the girls rigorously in the pre-season, with the philosophy of "if you want
it, go out and get it." He enforced net action by practice drills that would get the women into net,
taking charge of the point to be able to put it away. It was a difficult strategy to adapt not only in
doubles, having both players charge the net, but also in doubles, moving into the net after every
serve, or early in the point, ready for the cross court return. Coach Edelman trained the women's
and men's teams together during pre-season and held separate practices once the season began.
He emphasized drills and long distance runs to condition the women during the season while
holding challenge matches and several scrimmages for the men. Despite the rigorous workouts.
Coach Edelman tried to merge the teams by setting up a mixed doubles tournament during two
practices to break up the monotony.
Coach Edelman realized he had a year of rebuilding after losing top ranked league champion Jen
Hatem and her partner Miriam Meyer, who transferred to Villanova last year. He remained
optimistic about the team's potential, however, realizing the majority of the team was
underclassmen.
The team's captains for the 1991-92 season were senior Heather Goodwin and junior Janine
Munsill. Both were appointed to a captains peer council through the athletic department where
they spoke both within the college community and in area schools about issues facing today's
youth.
Goodwin held the #1 singles position this season, after a one year leave because of an ankle injury.
This injury caused another leave during the Eall '91 season after she fell over on it during a match
against Bryant College. Realizing her importance, she worked hard to recover and reappeared in
the line up a week later.
Other returning varsity players were sophomore Lisa Morey, #2 singles, Sheri LaCourse, #4
singles and junior Kristen D'Eramo, #5 singles. Munsill held the #6 singles position.
New faces for the squad were sophomore Tricia Moore, freshwoman Paula Novell! and fresh woman
Kerrie Axt, all of whom saw some varsity action. Also playing was freshwoman Lisa "Capriati"
Smith, who held the #3 singles position.
On the doubles line-up, the standings were: Heather Goodwin and Lisa Smith playing #1, Sheri
LaCourse and Lisa Morey playing #2 and Kristen D'Eramo and Janine Munsill at #3, followed by
exhibition matches which did not count in conference match scoring.
Sheri LaCourse was named October Athlete of the Month as a result of her exceptional record
during the season at the #5 position and her achievement as a New England Championship
finalist.
Despite not making the NE-10 tournament and having a tough season, the team considers this year
as a transition, both because of a new coach and the number of underclassmen on the team. It was
a season of rebuilding, trying to live up to the Merrimack legend the team has been in past years,
being second only to Springfield last year. There is a great deal of potential among the women,
and with spring training and work over the summer, the Eall '92 season looks very promising.

Volleyball
ILn till.* beginning, we Duly had seven players. None of us knew what to exp>ect for
the upcoming season or from our new coach Kick Tidd. Kick was demanding, as all ;
coaches are, along with experienced and intelligent. At first, he was intimidating,
but as the season progressed, we got used to each other. The veterans realized that i
the improvements we had made were because of our knew coach.
Toward mid season, we added another member to our squad. Unfortunately, we
still only had three hitters - an offensiv'e position for those who spike or hit the ball.
This limited our overall play but considering this, we did well.
One day during practice we established our goals for the season. .Most dealt with j
limiting the amount of errors per match. They were all attainable goals, and if they j
needed to be modified in any way, then we would do so. At mid season, we
discussed how well we were doing at attaining our goals. We also established
individual goals of how many digs (bumping a spike) or kills (spiking the ball to the
ground) we should average a game. Some, like serving errors, had to be changed,
while others stayed the same. Throughout the season, we were reminded of our
goals and that we had to do everything in our power to achieve them.
One particular match that stands out was against Springfield . The team had banded
together because the day before at practice we let out all of our frustrations that had i
mounted throughout the season. Our goal for the day was to be obnoxious and
celebrate as much as possible. It was one of our best matches even though we lost. ;
Springfield was third or fourth in our conference and had won the N E-1 0 Conference
Championship the previous season.
Although we were always reminded of our goals, we did not always abide by them.
Coach Tidd always told us it was imperative to reach our goals so that we could be
victorious. Whenever we reached our goals, we had a successful match. But on the
other hand, when we neglected our goals, we fell short.
Our overall record does not signify the success of this year's squad. We had some j
good times and some bad, but just because we lost does not mean we did not always |j
play well. We made great improvements over last year's team and next year's team ^
promises to be even better. J
Losing four seniors and a coach provided many hurdles for this year's squad to |
jump. Rick was always there to guide us through by developing goals we needed I
to accomplish. We might not hav'e made it by every hurdle, but we did the best we I
could and made the most of what we had.

t u'lis ii iDiigh season for the lWl-92 Warric»r htK'key team.
l')ebilitating injuries, as well as unfortunate academic
circumstances to some of the team's key perk)rmers were more i
prevalent than wins in 1 lockey Hast, as Merrimack struggled to
a disappointing 4-17-0 mark in league play and only finished i
13-20-0 overall.
Luckily, senior net-minder Steven D'Amore met the adversity
head on and turned in several superlative performances to help
the Warriors snatch sudden victory from the jaws of certain '
defeat. D'Amore appeared in 25 games and posted a very
respectable record of 10-13. In those contests, he had a save
percentage of .868 and made 592 stops. 1 le was the goalie when
Merrimack defeated Boston College, 3-1, Boston University, 5-
4, and Northeastern, 2-0.
Up front, junior forward Daniel Gravelle was the top scorer, as
he netted 15 goals and added 26 assists . Other stars included
' senior Agostino Casale, who scored 30 points. Teal Fowler, ,
who chipped in with 16 goals and 11 assists, and senior Rob
Kelley, who supplied much of the grunt work in the corners j
and in front of the other teams' goaltenders.
It was through each of the player's hard work every day that
helped the team to be win the first I lockey East Team i
Sportsmanship Award, presented by Commissioner Stu Haskell j
at the Boston Garden on March 12. j
Although at times it can be difficult to balance a full time
schedule and play a Division I sport, the team has fared well,
with four players having been named to the Hockey East All
Academic team after the past three seasons.

Baseball
hrow tom'fluT a bunch of relatively ytHing guys
who love the game ot baseball and what will you get?
No one has ever known what to expect from the youth
that have comprised the Merrimack baseball team in
the past seasons, and this year was yet another year of
mixed expectations. Fortunately, despite the youth
and the usual inexperience that accompanies it, these
Warriors were determined to play the game to the best
of their ability. Although their rect)rd was not flawless,
on the field one thing was obvious — these men had a
love of the sport which could not be equaled. These
assets, backed by strong leadership by the v'eterans,
the Merrimack baseball team showed that age is no
obstacle and spirit cannot be feigned.
In the heat of Ft. Pierce, Florida, the boys prov'ed early
on that they had come to play. The Warrior squad
came out swinging. They backed their offensive attack
with an equally stalwart defense. Despite the expected
challenges from the perennial powers in the Northeast-
10 Conference, the Warriors stood their ground and
forced the competitors to keep them in mind as a
potential threat.
The battle became somewhat more intense for the team
at the end of the long season, yet, they remained
competitiv'e through it all. Finishing about .500 for the
year, the Warriors have not lost the one element which
driv'es them through each game — spirit.
Looking ahead, next season should be equally bright.
After some eff ective recruiting, the squad will be joined
by several newcomers who will become part of the
baseball tribe due to their immeasurable talent and
spirit.

only Division III team at Merrimack, the lacrosse team learni-d that
their dream ot entering Division II was not to he realized.
In)iirv and ineligibility next plagued the team. IX-spite these- ob-
stacli-s, the Warriors, led by Coach Paul Murphy, Assistant Coach
bill Bred m and Captains John Cassedy, Pete Davis, Hd DyBruynand
Ron Pollina, persevered. i
Paced with a lack ot funding from the schiHil, the players financed
their trip to California during spring break. I lere the Warriors saw
their record of ten straight victoric-s, the bi-sf of any team in New
England, fall in their opening game against Roger Williams. |
During the season the team had a difficult time getting the offense 1
going, as well as staying out of the penalty box. Senior Pete Davis li-d [
the Warriors in scoring with points. Junior goalie Pat Richard, in his
first year in net in varsity play, anchored the veteran defense. j
Merrimack ended their season with a 3-10 record. The team is losing '
seven seniors this year - John Cassedy, Pete Davis, Scott Eltenhofer,
Tom .MacDonald, Ron Pollina, John Wait and Jamie Winter. The

Softball
list like iiii tiudiciK'c* viewing o sequel of a breathtakingly
original movie, everyone has expectations the second time
around. I'or the Merrimack softball team, nothing differed.
I he Lady Warriors were no longer the underdog after the IWl
softball season. After winning the Nt)rtheast-l{) Conference
title, and earning their first ever NCAA Division II Mid-
Atlantic Regional the group proved just what we were capable
of achieving. In the season, our w'ork was definitely cut
out for ourselves. It was time to prove that last year's
accomplishments were no stroke of luck, and our young, but
talented team was ready, willing and able to face thechallenges.
Sometimes, a team can slide into that top ranked position
because it goes unnoticed by the competition. It is simply not
expected to do that well.. In the past, this seemed the case for
the Lady Wa rriors. But, this year things changed .All opponents
had their eyes focused upon the talent that comprised the
Merrimack squad. They could study all they wanted, psych up
and prepare, but there was no stopping the invincible Warriors.
Led by a strong pitching staff, backed by a seemingly
impenetrable defense, Merrimack shut down opponents, only
to crush them by an equally forceful offense.
Playing together as a unit, the Lady Warriors won the Notheast-
10 Conference title, finishing 19-1 in the conference, and going
on to win the Northeast-10 playoffs. The Merrimack attack w'as
on a two year streak. Unfortunately, destiny played a large role
in the team's ultimate progress, as we were not allowed to
continue onward to the NCAA Regionals.
The ladies did everything in our power to go as far as we
could — together we fought, together we won. Although the
rejection from the NCAA Regionals was somewhat
disheartening, nothing could take away the pride and spirit of
this team. Together we dealt with all obstacles and
circumstances, always striving to our ultimate goal — victory.

Athletes of
Sherri LaCourse - Women's Tennis
Will) would buliovc thill Slicri l.iiCourse never had a tormal tennis lesson- and that tennis was only
a recreational hobby until her sophomore year in high school? Anyone who has sc*en Sheri play
probably wouldn't!
As an athlete, Sheri has been seriously influenced by her brother. "1 played my best matches with
him. I wanted to be as good as him. I le's always been my favorite opponent, but I never beat him
until recently. 1 le pushed me to my fullest potential- he was always a challenge."
Sheri has no problem getting psyched up for her matches. "1 think about past matches, mistakes
made, and what I need to do to avoid making the mistakes again."
Sheri is an undeclared business major with a minor in F'ine Arts. Someday, she would like to coach
a high school squad. In high school, Sheri was the recipient of the coach's award, a member of the
National 1 lonor's Society, captain of the woman's soccer team, and vice-president of the senior
class. In college, she has been a Dean's List student.. (Undoubtedly, this student still has a verv
bright future ahead of her.)
Looking ahead, Sheri believes the team will face a year of rebuilding in the next season. "There are
a lot of young players, but the coach has high hopes- because of the youth, the team looks quite
promising. . Kristen D'Eramo
Sherri LaCourse
prepares to make yet
another fine return.
Eric McPhail - Golf
A resident of Waltham, Massachusetts, Eric McPhail first developed his interest in golf when he worked
at a golf course. It's been nine years since those days and he is still playing.
Eric thanks his parents for their support throughout his golf career. "They got me started by taking me •
to lessons and playing with me as often as possible." Eric explained, "My father has always been my ;
favorite competitor. He pushes me to be my best." '
Eric is a business major who has participated in intramural hockey during his days at Merrimack. One
of his greatest achievements came when he was crowned the Mass State junior Champion. He is not sure |
at what level, yet he is sure that he will continue to play golf after college.
Eric evaluates the team's performance this season, "With a third place finish at Bowdoin the team started i
out well, yet dropped at the end, with the 5th place finish at the Northeast 10." He continues with the i
prospects for the upcoming year, "Although Senior Captain j.P. Guerin will be graduating, the team isn
still young and has a lot of talent. Next year's leader. Bob Annese will help the team with his length." jj
Congratulations to all the students named Athlete of the
Month. The Merrimackan staff apologizes to those students
we were unable to interview and spotlight.
Dan Collins - Men's Soccer ' j
Dan Collins overcame the primary obstacle between himself and the pursuit of athletic excellence on the j
soccer field- his size. "A lot of people told me I couldn't compete seriously..! think it's safe to say my speed
and agility offset a major part of the size problem."
Dan began playing soccer at the age of 6. Like many other players, the majority of his learning experience
in the early years came from a strong youth soccer league. In addition to soccer, Dan was also actively
inv'olved in baseball. As Dan explained it, "Istuck with soccer.. I just loved the sport." During high school,
he was named to his league's all-star team twice and was captain of his squad senior year. T wo of the most
influential individuals in Dan's athletic career were his father and his brother. "My father used to coach
and my older brother played. I saw my brother play and felt I could do just as well."
No different than many other athletes, before a match, Dan listens to loud music to get psyched up. It
is never usually a problem though. "College is so competitive — the level of play gets the adrenaline
flowing." Dan sites Stonehill as one of his favorite rivals. "They are just one of our long-term rivals., they {
get really cocky.. I ESPECIALLY lov'ed beating them in double overtime this year."
Two groups of athletes that Dan admires are the professional soccer players and the World Cup players.
Dan is a management major who has also participated in the College's intramural program in both
Basketball and Indoor Soccer. Looking aheaci to what the next season should hold for the Warriors Dan
explains, "There were fifteen freshmen on the team this year. We were young and it was a rebuilding year.
Although we lose five or six seniors, I think we will fare quite well in the 92 season."

Carol Marquardt - Women's Soccer
Thirteen years ago, Carol Marquardt followed in her
brothers' footsteps and decided to play soccer. Before a
game, she likes to listen to some music to get psyched up
and ready to play. In reality though, she just lov'es all the
aspects of the sport, so this is not a difficult feat to accomplish.
"It is a great feeling to play together with a team. It's a lot of fun to be together. Everyone wins together."
Carol majored in Marketing at Merrimack, graduating with a degree in Business Administration. If she
is not successful in obtaining an employment position within a reasonable amount of time, she may try
out for the national team. "I truly admire the women on the national team. They don't get much
recognition... They play just because they love the sport."
One of the greatest influences in Carol's athletic career has been coach Gabe Mejail. "He is not like a coach..
He brings himself down to the team level., and he is more like our equal." While at Merrimack, under
coach Mejail's wing, Carol has received various honors. The impressive list includes: Most Valuable
Player, All New England, and All Northeast 10.
Reflecting on the season, Carol explains, "This year was the worst year record wise... but, we played our
best. The competing teams were really tough. Upcoming years," she adds, "will depend upon the level
of recruits the coaches are able to bring in."

Cathy Nagorski - Women's Soccer
The Merrimack Soccer tans should thank tlie soccer coach at Shrewsbury High School tor the excellent job that was done
preparing C athy Nagorski t(»r collegiate play. During her years at Shrewsbury, Nagorski made the District All-Star team thrcn?
times. Additionally, with hopes of enhancing her skills, Nagorski played in Europe and attended an Olympic Development
camp. It one considers her accolades at Merrimack, it is evident that her hard work and training paid off. Nagorski has been
named "Rookie of the Year," been named to the Northeast-IO- All Star team, and recently has been named to the All-New
England team.
Although Cathv began playing soccer at a rather late age, 1 1, she quickly developed a deep interest in the sport. "The excitement
and competition of the game was a natural high- just scoring and winning.." Cathy worked hard to dev’elop her talent, "I played
whenever and wherever I could- even in the backyard and cellar with my brother." Oie of the most significant influences in
her athletic career has been her parents. "They have always been willing to give their time to make me a better player — i.e.
driving me to games, my father taking classes on the sport, and my father coaching.. Most importantly, my father would always
share his new findings with me. I was never really pushed, but allowed to make the decisions."
To get mentally prepared for a game, Cathy plays music really loud. "I sit and visually imagine the game, preparing mentally
the various situations in the game with Merrimack dominating in every situation. If something dc^esn't happen right away, it
will later." Cathy continued by answering the question-who is your favorite opponent. "My favorite opponent is any team that
gives us a challenge- an even match with tougher level teams."
Cathy is a psychology major. She has done quite a bit of coaching, has worked at soccer camp, and loves coaching the sport,
as much as playing. Like the rest of her teammates, she was quite disappointed when the team was knocked out in the semi-
finals. However, she does believe that a great deal of dedicated players are moving up, and, as a lot of freshmen put in a lot
this season, the future should bring success for the Lady Warriors.

Doing that does help me get more into the game." Based upon his season's
statistics, Curran definitely didn't have a problem getting psyched for the
game. He led the team in points, averaging 21.2 per game, and in rebounds,
with a total of 138 for the season. Undoubtedly, these impressive stats are
somewhat a result of one of his "favorite opponents." "My favorite opponent
is myself. I constantly try to improve. .to do things a little bit better."
The greatest influence in Steve's athletic career has been his family. "My
parents have always been there with tremendous support." Additionally,
Steve continued, "My brother and 1 hav^e always been competitive against
each other, .but never in an unhealthy sense." Steve has been actively
involved in the sport for twelve years. "There was a good youth league in
Chelmsford.. A lot of my friends played, so I decided to." He has always
liked the idea of being part of a team with so many different backgrounds
that comes together in the pursuit of one common goal. Of course, he also
has enjoyed the recognition that accompanies the hard work and
perserverence.
Steve has been recognized in Who's Who in America's College's and
Universities. He has also been named to the 1 st team All-Conference, as well
as the 2nd team District 1 All-American. He is an International Business
major who has spent some of his spare time refereeing intramurals. Looking
into the future, he would like to continue to play basketball and perhaps
coach his own team.
Looking back at his career at Merrimack, "Winning the NE-10 had to be the
greatest part..and of course making it back to the NCAA Regionals."
Stev'e wants to remind the team members who will be playing in the next
season what Coach Hamel always says... "Things aren't always as bad as
they seem. .or, as good as they seem."

Karen Max - Women's Basketball
This was Karen's first time as Athlete of the Month. Karen is a very humble individual.
She was surprised and honored when she heard the news. She displayed her modesty
when she explained that there is always room for improvement in her game. She
continued to say, "If you are satisfied with your effort and do not think you can improve
upon it, you are selling yourself short. When you are satisfied with yourself, you are at
your peak awaiting a decline."
Karen began her basketball career in the fourth grade. She was a center throughout high
school because of her height, but at Merrimack she is a forward. She is self-driven. She
wants to win to satisfy herself. Instead of listening to one particular tape, or goofing
around with her teammates, Karen listens to herself to get psyched up for her games. "1
go into myself and get my energy from up there. I am the only person that can get me
psyched up."
These past two years Karen has not been satisfied with her performance on the court. She
wants to utilize the two years she has left to steadily improve her game. Additionally,
she would like to see the squad beat Bentley College. The game against Bentley is one
of Karen's favorite games. "We have nothing to lose. We are always the underdog. If
we lose, it is expected. ..but, if we win, it is the upset of the season."
Looking into the future, Karen would like to play in a basketball league in Europe after
graduation. Although people tell her that she is good enough, she still thinks she won't
be good enough to play there, however. "If I am not good enough to play in Europe, then
I will have to get a job." Karen is an accounting major from New Jersey. She would like
to become a CPA in Massachusetts.
Karen appreciates the support her parents have given to her throughout the years. "Even
though they live five - six hours away, my parents have made it to almost all of my
twenty six basketball games. It always helps to see their faces in the stands."
Fans can definitely look forward to Karen Max's
92-93 performance. Karen played an average of
twenty four minutes per game and finished her
season with 136 points.

Gary Duda - Men's Basketball
Senior Co-Captain Ciary Duda is definitely a well-rounded athlete. I le accepted the challenge of balancing academics, his
social life and basketball and managed to excel both on the court and in the classroom, f fe received countless awards for his
achievements both on and off the court, but is most proud of being named to the GTE/College Sports Information Directors
of America Academic All-America team. Duda was the only Division II player in the Northeast to rtxreive such honors.
I Considering this accomplishment, it should come as no surprise that one athlete whom he greatly admires is Julius Erving.
I "I just like the way he carries himself on and off the court. I lis eloquence teaches young athletes a valuable lesson — there's
more to life than just basketball." When Gary leaves Merrimack, he will be working for the Coopers and Lybrand accounting
firm in their Philadelphia branch.
Gary began his basketball career at the age of 5. "My family was very sports oriented. I played basketball and baseball in grade
j school and high school, but 1 decided in college it would have been tough to play two sports. I really liked basketball, so I chose
that to pursue." Looking back, he cites his parents as the greatest influence in his athletic life. "They have been there through
all times — good and bad. Though they are always be ready to pat me on the back, they also will criticize my mistakes and keep
me down to earth."
Garv has not had a problem motivating himself for the games. "It's easy to get motivated for something that you love to do.
! It's when you don't like to do something that you need to motiv'ate yourself." Over the years, he has come to love the people
he meets through his involvement with the sport. He became quite close to various coaches and players on a wide array of
teams. In the past four years, he has enjoyed the rivalries of Assumption and Bentley. "Undoubtedly these were some of our
most memorable games." The team would probably agree with Gary that the highlight of the season came when they
synchronized their efforts and managed to
win the championship. "We faced a
tremendous amount of adversity. In the pre-
season polls, we were picked to finish 4th.
People were con\’inced that it was a fluke we
got so far in the 90-91 season. We had a tough
start with a lot of ups and downs, but the
victory in the end really brought us close
together..and it was great to see five seniors,
who were such close friends leave with
championship rings."
Looking ahead to the upcoming season, Gary
has total confidence in the remaining
members of the team. "Although they are
young, they will do a great job if they work to
mature as a team and constantly work
towards a common goal."
- Heather Fleming
The play of Gary Duda will definitely be missed by
fans and teammates alike. It will be strange to sit in
the stands and not hear that infamous announce-
ment.. "Three for DUUUL'UUDA!" Averaging thirty
six minutes of play per game and 14.1 points, Gary
Duda put his heart into his play.
I
With 592 saves, for a Goals Against Average of 4.02,
Steven D'Amore provided some solid defense for the
Warrior squad.
Steve D'Amore - Hockey
Steven D'Amore started playing hockey at the age of four. "I was sort of
born with skates on." In the 1984-85 season, he first started for the St. Johri's
Prepatory School Squad and was in goal when the team won the MIAA
Division One Championship. As Steven explained, "Playing in the Boston
Garden was the ultimate rush." At one point in his high school career, he
was even told that, as a result of an injury, he would never play again, but,
he worked diligently to dispel that myth.
When Steven came to Merrimack, he didn't make the team right away.
Fortunately, Assistant Coach Stu Irvdng helped him to "stay interested
emotionally.." Eventually, Steve's persistence paid off, and he did make the
squad. "I love the competitive nature of the sport. .It is a pure adrenalin
rush. Just the thought of the competition gets me psyched for my games."
Looking back upon his career, Steven is proud of the contribution he was
able to make to the team during his final year of play. He hopes that future
players quickly learn to appreciate what they have.. "Once it's gone you
don't get it back.. It goes by very quickly." He will always remember Scott
Lagrand of the Boston College squaci as one of his favorite goalies to play
against and the University of Maine as one of his favorite teams. As Steve
explained, "Both Scott and U. of Maine had a certain mystique. Besides, it
always helps you to see how good you really are when you play against the
best." Of course, little else will be remembered as fondly as the victory
against Boston University. "They always took the ice with such an arrogance
towards us. It was great to be able to shut them up."
Glancing into the future. Steepen thinks that the Warriors will definitely
improve. "We have already improved in so many areas., goals against,
overall defense and various individual statistics. We have been plagued by
some painful injuries and have suffered the loss of some talent due to
academic reasons, but the future should bring success. A great many of the
team will be coming back with experience and Coach Anderson not only
recruits well, but also strives to bring out the best in us all. Additionally, the
league is having a changing of the guards — a lot of the established players
will be moving into the pros. This will only enhance our chances for
success."
Steven is working to graduate with a double major in Marketing and
Chemistry. After one of his early science courses, he realized that he really
liked lab work. So he decided to pursue a rather rare path for his studies.
He would like to thank Dr. Davis for being Merrimack College's greatest
hockey fan and for all of his help in the classroom.
- Heather Fleming
Senior Chris Lovett provided solid play off the bench for the
Warriors. Chris had his year high of fourteen points against North-
east 10 rivals Bentley College.
Clare Mclnerney averaged twenty eight minutes of play per
game and contributed 259 points. Undoubtedly, as Clare moves
into her senior year, she will be looked upon to provide leader-
ship to the younger players.
Teal Fowler - Hockey
junior Teal Fowler added much needed offenseive zeal to the Merrimack squad. Fowler was
third in scoring, behind Pan Gravelleand Agostino Casale. He netted sixteen goals and eleven
assists.
Kim Page - Softball
Kim Page has been playing softball since she was ten years old. "My dad
was drafted by the pro's — My sister and I became the sons he didn't
ha ve.. until my brother was born.." She continued, "My father has always
been one of the most significant influences in my athletic career. He has
always pushed me to be the best. Now, all things considered I have to say
that I am quite glad he did so." Kim added with a smile, "We even have
a field in our back yard. My father fell in love with the idea when he saw
the movie Field of Dreams.”
Kim loves the sport of softball. She has no problem getting psyched up
for the game, "Just knowing everyone else behind you is psyched up for
the game makes it happen. .it is like a unit." She loves the team aspect of
softball and reinforces the importance of all players. "Without the
defense behind us, it wouldn't work.. no matter how well we pitch."
Kim explained how early on she had no self-confidence, but, in time it
grew. "You need to believe in yourself.. then, and only then, will
everyone else believe in you." In reality, Kim has everything in the world
to be confident and proud of. The 1991 Softball Rookie of the Year, this
English major is also a Varsity Volleyball player. In addition to her
athletic excellence, she has been named to the Academic All-American
District I team for Volleyball.
Unlike many other collegiate athletes, Kim admires two athletes that are
not constantly in the spotlight: Jim Abbot and University of North
Carolina's Linda Lipson. "I just admire everything about Jim Abbot.,
everything he went through with only one arm. Linda Lipson is also a
definite idol for her involvement and excellence in two Division One
sports, track and softball."
In the future, Kim would love to coach pitching. "I have already done a
lot of clinics.. I just don't know if 1 have the necessary patience."
Looking into the next season, Kim would definitely like to go to the Final
Four. "I think we have the power to do it.. It was sort of out of our hands
during the 1992 season."
- Heather Fleming
Kim Page prepares to fire another bullet across the plate.
With 148 strikeouts this season. Page was definitely a shining
star for the Lady Warriors.
Meeghan Coffey - Softball
Meeghan Coffey fires the ball across the diamond. Meeghan was
definitely an offensive spark for the Lady Warriors, posting a .466
average and succeeding in eight of nine stolen base attempts.

Cooperative Education
tH)pcr.ili\’e Ediiaition is n five year program where
students alternate semesters ot schcK)l with st'mesters of
full-time paid positions. Students in the program are
able to utili/e their particular concentration of study in
scluHil v\ith rele\'ant work experiences. Co-op is experiencing
continual growth and popularity with a rcxrord numbcT of students
joining for the summer of 1992.
Co-op students ha\ e a wide variety of work IcK'ations to chcH)se
from, ranging from small companies to world-wide corporations.
Some of the companies presently employing students include: The
Boston Company, IBM, Bull, Raytheon, The Boston Globe and Walt
Disney. The continued success of the program is clirectly related to
Merrimack students being highly regarded and in demand amongst
the \’arious employers that hire co-ops.
Co-op students are often asked why they have joined the
program. The answer most often heard is, "WHY NOT?" Co-op
pro\'ides students with what they need to be competitive in today' s
job market. These jobs help to develop professionalism, as well as
the technical and communication skills that often cannot be taught
in a classroom. In addition to the skills learned, co-ops also develop
a network of contacts for possible future employment upon
graduation. Several previous students have received offers from
their former Co-op employers. As students in the Co-op program
alternate semestersof work and school, it can also be a useful means
for financing ones education. Although participating in the program
rec]uires students to be in school an extra year, most feel it is well
worth it.lt enables them to be in the college environment one more
year before they have to hit the "real world."
Benefits receix'ed from Co-op do not stop while on the job. Once
students return to school they are able to see what is learned in the
classroom really applies in the wcirk world. They are able to share
in their class the latest information and techniques being utilized
currently on the job.
When graduation finally arrives co-op stucients will be ready to
go into the working world —they have been there before.

as we so frequently are forced
to burn the candle at both ends.
For many of us, summer was a
time when we were sweating
and unable to breathe, sitting
in classrooms equipped with
fans, but without extension
cords to plug them in. After all
is said and done, however, we
look back with an incredible
sense of pride and
accomplishment, a feeling
words could never express! To
feel it is to live it.
There is another factor which
must be acknowledged in

complete: the commitment
and dedication of the faculty
to our education. Without
the devotion of both the
Department of Continuing
Education and the professors
who were willing to sacrifice
so much of their free time,

he goal of the
Accounting and
Finance Society is to
unite accounting and finance
majors to increase their
knowledge of accounting a nd
finance practices and
methods. The society helps
stucients to meet with local
and national businesses to
learn about their company
and the world of accounting
and finance in general. We
enthusiastically support
students to go into public,
private, and government
sectors of the fielci. We
encourage our members to
address current issues and
trends in both fielcis.
Among the highlights of
the 1991-92 academic year
was our continued affiliation
with the Institute of
Management Acccnmtants, a
national accounting organ-
ization. This organization
serves as the Society's link with
the local business community.
Additionally, it provides
students with the opportunity
to establish contacts and
valuable information on the
public and private sectors of
accounting.
This year we hosted our
annual "Big Six Night" once
again during Fall recruiting.
We also hosted a "Career
Afternoon" during the spring
semester featuring speakers
and representatives from both
sectors of the industry. We
overcame our budget deficit
by selling candy bars and we
also had a raffle during the last
week of classes.
The society continues to
grow and we hope to be bigger
than ever next year. Currently,
we are working on affiliating
the society with a finance
orgaiiization. In the fall of 1992,
Professc')r Andrews will be
joining the society as a co-
advisor. Thanks to all of our
members for a successful
year. Best of luck to the
seniors as they head into the
business world.
'Effen 'Kpinanou’ski
he Alternati\ e Voice,
Merrimack College's
student magazine, is
an open forum tor tlie
Merrimack community to
share their voices. Our
magazine provides a place
where students as well as
alumni, professors, staff
members and administrators
can express their perception
of the world in a creati\’e form:
poetry, short stories, art,
photography and so forth.
The Voice was founded in the
spring semester of 1989
during the crumbling of the
old right-wing newspaper,
"The Warrior" and was
approved as an official
publication the following
year. Many of the founders
of the AV were tutors in the
Writing Center who shared a
strong belief in the
importance of writing to an
audience. Because there was
no open forum for expression
we created a magazine that
would allow people to
communicate their ideas,
feelings and concerns.
As the Senior Editor, 1,
Janine Van Patten, am one of
the original founders of the
AV. 1 have watched the
creation of the AV, seen its
growth and watched us
overcome many obstacles.
When we first began our main
goal was to not take any
political stand. The people's
voices that we publish stand
on their own and do not have
to fit into any categories, lam
proud to say that the AV still
allows an open forum and
has fought to keep it alive.
Eric Labbe, our first Senior
Editor, stated the big paradox
of the AV quite clearly:
By trying to remove oiirsehes
from any siftgle political cause,
we have taken a political staiul. I
guess you coulii say that our staml
is with the imliviiiual. Wc as a
magazine don't necessarily have a
political view that is any more
narrow than the belief in an open
forum. Ami at Merrimack College
at least, this is an especially
political idea. On a campus where
conformity seems to be the name
of the game a lot of the time, and
dii’ersity just doesn' t seem toexist ,
an attempt at recognizing the
diversity of personalities is a
radical act, of a sort.
Given the nature of our
college and colleges across the
country, true expression is a
difficult thing to come by.
Conformity is in. Social life in
college centers around a keg
and is dictated by sororities
and fraternities who gain
membership through policies
of hazing. Membership to the
AV is based on personal
interest and the desire to
participate in an academic
related activity and sub-
missions are received form
people with the pure interest
of communicating their stories,
ideas and concerns to the
Merrimack College commun-
ity. To me the fact that so many
are willing to subject
themselves to pledging in order
to be accepted into a pre-
packaged social life is
disturbing. 1 would like to
challenge more students to
pursue their interests even if it
means being alone. It is more
difficult to express oneself as
an individual.
The AV has faced a few
challenges from the college,
however we wouldn't have
stayed alive if we didn't receive
support also. In our beginning,
we had to face a rather angry
now ex-administrator who felt
that students shouldn't be
allowed to publish a magazine
and an unknown priest who
lives in Austin Hall who
remo\'ed a few magazines from
Austin 1 lall because he fell that
the AV wasn't Catholic
enough. But on the brighter
side we did receive funding in
a very prompt manner as far as
that goes and the Writing
Center has been very helpful.
Dr. A1 DeCiccio, Director of
the Writing Center and our
advisor has allowed us to use
the computers and office space
in the Writing Center. What 1
would like to see is more
support from the college in
general. Because we are an
organization that has an
academic nature, 1 feel that we
have an important role in the
community. Students whv
submit are doing so willingly,
not because they have to get a
grade. The AV shows that there
is a strong interest in writing
and learning. 1 would like the
community of Merrimack to
bring ou r college back to a place
of learning in which the utmost
importance is placed on the
role of student and teacher.

he goal of the
Merrimack College
Marketing Associa-
tion is to bring the fast chang-
ing anct fascinating field of
Marketing to students who
wish to explore the
opportunitiesthatawaitthem
upon graduation. Our goal
was well achie\’ed this semes-
ter as we sponsored a record
breaking number of chari-
table events both on and off
campus to benefit those in
need.
A canned food drive was
organized to assist families
in the Lawrence and
Somer\'ille areas whose chil-
dren have been stricken by
theAlDSx'irus. The response
from the entire Merrimack
community was no surprise
as we filled several cars to the
brim transporting food to the
stKial workers. Surprisingly,
professors were fighting to
sign up for the first annual
DunkTank Festival! Thissun
filled day of laughs and lots
of water not only helped to
foster comraderie amongst
faculty and students, but it
also helped to raise money
for the needy families in
Lawrence and Somerxille.
The AsscKiation also created
and distributed Easter Bas-
kets to these families. Of
course, it didn't stop there.
At Christmas, money was
donated to the families to
keep the spirits bright!
As part of our intent to
bring the world of Market-
ing as it exists today to the
lead ersof tomorrow, we were
pleased to invite Mr.
McDougal from McDougal
Associates Advertising and
Public Relations firm from
Peabody, MA. He whet our
appetites with the possibili-
ties that await us and the
proper steps to take in get-
ting there.
In addition to many suc-
cessful fundraising cam-
paigns, we were successful
with extending our annual
Fall Semester Surv ival Kits
program into the spring se-
mester as well. Kiss the Se-
niors goodbye was another
first time event held in his-
tory of the Association. Stu-
dents could buy Hershey
Kisses for their friends and
wish them well upon their
graduation.
In the fall, members of the
club were able to attend the
annual regional conferenceat
Johnson and Wales College.
Theday was full of new learn-
ing experiences with net-
working and lots of enjoy-
ment. In April, the
Merrimack Marketing Asso-
ciation attended the Interna-
tional Collegiate Conference
in New Orleans, Lousiana.
The Merrimack Association

pro\'ide information as well as
a place for all members of the
community to express views.
The Argus is entirely produced
by students; it uses no
syndicated materials to fill its
pages.
There are many ways to be
inv'olved with the Argus staff.
Students may work as
photographers, sports jour-

news writers, editors,
managers, adyertising direc-
tors, club and organization
liaisons, layout and design
editors, moyie and play
reviewers and graphic design

The Argus is constantly
evolving to address new
concerns and issues. The paper
constantly reflects on itself,
“proofreading" itself, so to
become a better publication
with every issue.

Ash Hall Council
he Ash Hall council has
done a great job this
year planning events
for students, sponsoring
fundraisers and v^olunteering
in community services. To start
the year off, we co-sponsored
and participated in the Big
Brother / Big Sister program.
We took the children of
Lawrence to the Omni Theater
at the Museum of Science. We
also donated some time and
ef fort to the cause by providing
activities for the children here
on campus.
We have focused our
attention in other directions as
well. For example, the Lazarus
House was one great
experience which left a lasting
impression. As a result, we
have tried to go back to visit
every couple of months.
Additionally, we worked to
sponsor v^arious fundraisers.
At Halloween there was a
dance and costume party. For
Valentines's Day, we sold
lollipops.
Members should be
congratulated and praised for
their time and effort.

Contest. We invited several area high
schools to compete in a day long
contest which required the talented
high school students to solve a
challenging set of problems by writing
computer programs. As usual, the
contest provided a valuable learning
experience for both the participants
and ourselves.
Each year, our organization
sends two members across the countrv
to represent Merrimack at the
International Computer Science
Conference where the dedicated elite
from around the world meet for a
week long program featuring the\'ery
latest in the computing industry. This
year Christine Paradis and John
Ahearn trav^eled to Kansas City,
Missouri where they attended
workshops and seminars in order to
improve their ability to run a
successful student chapter.
With the passing of the 1991-1992
academic year, the student chapter of
the ACM is entering a new generation.
The graduating seniors are the last of
the founding members of our group.
In their place are a group of enthusiastic and
motivated underclassmen who deserve a thank
you for the valuable contributions they have
made to our group this year. We also extend
our gratitude to Professor Patricia Ducharme,
who founded our chapter in 1987 and to Dr.
Walter Maxey, who is our current faculty
advisor.

A J chapterof the Association for
Computing Machinery is a
group of students who share an
interest in the computer science field.
We are part of an international
organization of computer profes-
sionals.
Our chapter has come a long way
since its recognition in 1987. Wehave
strived to be an asset to the Merrimack
College community by sponsoring
student run presentations, workshops
and demonstrations to help others
adapt to our computer facilities. On
the road to success, our biggest
obstacle has been keeping people
involved in our group. Membership
in a professional society such as our
group requires a commitment of time
which is something v'ery few
Merrimack students are willing to
give. Another obstacle has been
constant red tape which we faced time
and time again in trying to organize
successful events.
This year we continued our

Top: Tina, John Ford, Linda Carleton, Patricia Novelli, Rita Potter. Bottom: Andrew.
he Biology Club is made up of a diverse
group of individuals who share a
common interest, science. Member-
ship includes mostly biology majors and
minors, as well as allied health majors.
However, students from other majors are
encouraged to join. This past year, the club
exhibiteci its concern for the environment by
participating in "Beach Sweep '91." This
entailed donating time to assist in the attempts
to clean up a portion of Salisbury Beach.
Through increased participation and
enthusiasm, the Biology Club was revived.
We not only raised money by selling M&M's,
but also were able to enjoy the profits during
our Christmas banquet. It was a great
achievement for the club to be able to afford
this fun-filled night. Additionally, during the
semester, we organized a trip to the Ac|uarium
and designed T-shirts.
We are looking forward to another great
year, during which we will visit the Museum
of Science, the zoo, and we will organize a
hiking trip.

®his has been a suc-
cessful year for the
Merrimack College
Chorale. Once comprised
mostly of students, the
Chorale now consists of
students. Alumni, staff, and
neighbors of Merrimack
College.
Our early set back this year
was the small number of
student members so that we
could be off icially recognized
by Student Activities. This
challenge was ov'ercome by a
core group of students, some
of whom later became part of
the executive board.
With Campus Ministry's
SLi pport, we came together on
several occasions including
New Student Orientation,
Vespens (the service for
Christmas), and Baccalureate.

1993 Class Council
or the 1993 Class
■p I Council, 1991-1992
A j presented many new
and exciting challen-
ges. We faced high expec-
tations, but worked diligently
to leave our classmates with
many happy memories of an
enjoyable, memorable year.
Starting in September, Class
President Steven Cicilline,
along with the rest of the
council, worked hard in
laying the foundations for the
class of 1993's "Junior Week"
to be held in early March.
The December elections
saw a new council take office
with many new ideas and
tremendous enthusiasm.
Cicilline turned his reign over
to newly elected Mike Hart.
Hart has done an exceptional
job representing his class-
mates as president. This new
council proceeded in planning
and finalizing the events for
"Junior Week."
The events were kicked off
with a Lip Sync/ Comedy Nite
on March 5th. Mike Hart, and
his partner, Mike Dillon, took
first place singing "1 Got You
Babe." On March 6th, the
Shamboo All Stars Reggae
Band performed at the
Windsor Mills in Dracut. The
final event was the formal, held
at the Raddison in Woburn.
All the hard work paid off
when the events ended up a
fabulous success.
The Class of 1993 deserves
nothing but the best and this
council has worked hard to
give them just that. Senior year,
here we come!!

Commuter Council
he Commuter Council
looks to fulfill the needs
of some of fhe most
dedicated students in the
Merrimack College commun-
itv, the ones who drive miles in
the morning in all sorts of
weather, while the other half is
' rolling out of bed five minutes
before the start of class. The
Council also looks to sponsor
events that residents, faculty
members, and staff members are
free to enjoy.
This year the Council brought
the Disc Jockey, MVP to
Merrimack three times. Adcii-
tionally, we co-sponsored the
Irish Band, the Moonshiners
with Program Boarci. Through-
out the year, we were also
involved in arranging various
lip syncs, and trips. As usual,
one of the greatest successes was
our annual trip to New York
City before the Christmas
holiday.
This year, we played an active
role in something new at
Merrimack. Together with the
American Marketing Associ-
ation and Program Board, we
introduced a different means
of fundraising, a dunking
booth. We would like to thank
the faculty and students for
their various contributions in
the effort to raise money for
families with members
suffering from AIDS. Hope-
fully, next year, the weather
will cooperate better!
Members of the Council
would like to invite commu ters

Institute of Electrical and
Electronics Engineers
I he Institute of
A J Electrical and Elec-
tronics Engineers
(IEEE) has 320,000 worldwide
members who share common
careers or stuci ies in the field s.
The raison d'etre of our
student branch is to provide
a somewhat informal social
and educational experience
for our members and
members of the college
community through activities
including field trips, guest
speakers, scholarships, and
services.
This past year has been a
successful time for the IEEE.
We visited three companies;
AGEA Corp., M-C, and finally
AT&T. They were more than
helpful in providing us with
these visit opportunities. We
had an alum, Jeff Kenedy,
come to a packed Arundel
Room to speak about what
challenges a graduate faces,
and what options are
available. This was a visit
welcomed by many of
Merrimack's engineering
seniors. The IEEE awarded
three scholarships last year
to students of Merrimack
College. We starfed an IEEE
library that contains over 70
monthly technical journals
that all students have access
to. Also, we developed a
tutoring program and
provided free tutoring service
to EE students during the
year.
The club has faced its share
of obstacles in melding with
the college community, seeing
that it is still in its infancy. But,
the dedication of Alex, Russ,
Mark, and our advisor.
Professor Tsuei, has brought
us to cope with our difficulties,
meet the challenges, and beat
them. We look forward to the
upcoming year, and wish the
graduating class of 1992 the
best of luck!

Intercultural Club
Indents treni Atrica,
Hiirope, Central and
South America,
Middle and East Asia came
together this year to form the
Intercultural Club. Together
with their US-American
peers, they explored the 'New
World' and broadened their
horizon with one another.
Sex'eral e\’ents showed them
the scenic beauty and the rich
cultural life of Boston and the
surrounding areas. Trips led
to the USS Constitution,
Salem, MA, and Harvard
Square. The students also
ventured into foreign arts: the
'Foreign Film Nights,' which
featured movies from
countries such as Spain,
France, and Germany, helped
the students to form a better
understanding of cultures
different than their own.
Equally helpful were the rich
and diverse discussit)ns
during the club meetings.
Many new and interesting
friendships developed. This
is a ma ni testa tion of the club's
goal: To integrate students
from every cultural back-
ground, especially those, who
are new to the country, into
the Merrimack College
Community and to establish
a lasting bond between all
members. Being a part of the
Intercultural Club is a lasting
and unforgettable exper-
ience, a truly mind-opening
adv^enture.

The Law Society
] he purpose of the Law Society is to
A I assist students of all majors in
preparation for entrance into the
various available legal professions. The
members hope to inform the college community
about issues of interest within society. In
February of 1991, the Law Society began to
reestablish itself. The newly elected Executive
Board worked hard to pull together the large,
enthusiastic group that we are today. The
residing Executive Board is as follows: President
- Joe Doyon, Vice President - Tracy Ellsworth,
Secretary - Paula Norton, Treasurer - Jennifer
Chistolini and Public Relations - Marie Schnyer
and AnnMarie Webb.
In the past, the Law Society has sponsored
guest speakers such as a representative from
former United States Senator Paul Tsongas'
Lowell campaign headquarters, has sponsored
trips to the annual Law Eorum in Boston, and,
has worked on various fundraising campaigns.
In the future, the Law Society hopes to increase
the frequency with which we coordinate our
efforts with other clubs and organizations on
campus. Currently, we are working with the
Political Science Society and the Student
Government Association to bring some of
the 1992 Presidential Candidates to come
and speak. One of our biggest goals for
the spring of 1993 is to run a trip to
Washington D.C.
To all the graduates of 1992, the Law
Society wished you the best of luck and
success in all of your future endeavors.

I talents to an audience for six

■ time, nerves, energy and zest
I are just a few qualities held by
I these people known as the On-
I Stagers.
I In the fall, a cast of ten
performed the Neil Simon
comedy, "Rumors." There was
much praise for the play and its
student performers. Then, as
the second semester began,
auditions also began for the
musical "Gypsy." This tumed
out to be the largest cast the On-
Stagers has ever had. There was
a lot of time and energy put into
each of these productions, but
we managed to have fun
throughout it aU!
Of course, at the close of the
91-92 academic year, elections
took place. The new E-Board
consists of: Jane Estrella:
President, Scott Jones: V.P.,Juhe
Harte: Secretary, Jodi Gennaco:
Treasurer, Ted Kempinski:
Member At Large, and Eaculty
Advisor: Rev. Kevin J. Keelen,
O.S.A. Along with the many
talented new comers the On-
Stagers saw, they bid a farewell
to a few seniors who hav'e made
many contributions to this
family.
Where else can you meet so
many different people with
different backgrounds and work
towards a goal of entertaining
people? You "gotta have a

and if you want to share in an
experience of a lifetime, then the

Political Science
Society
fter over a year of
I relative obscurity and
y_ V disorganization, the
i Merrimack College Political
j Science Society made a
comeback here on campus.
. Under the leadership of new
\ presicient, Kristen Smith,
: advisor, Harry Wessel, and a
I core group of active students,
I the Political Science Society
I elected a new execu hve board
and increased its
membership among students
of many different majors.
This club seeks to bring
together politically inerested
students of all majors into a
non-partisan environment
where differing views can be
expressed.
In March of 92, the Political
Science Society sponsored
one of the most successful
events in recent years. In the
midst of an interesting
presidential primary season,
the group brought Ralph
Nader to campus. Nader, the
famous consumer advocate
and citizen watchciog,
brought his message of
political change to the
Merrimack community.
Nader spoke to a packed
crowd of students, professors,
and local residents in Murray
Lounge for over an hour anci
later appeared on a special
broadcast of MECCA-13,
during which he was
interviewed by our advisor,
Harry Wessel.
The Society's projects for
the coming year include a
planned Political Science
Alumni night where students
can meet with successful
alumni and gain advice and
insight into future careers.
The Political Science Society
will also be co-hosting Peace
aiul Social Justice Week in
the fall and plans to bring
more guest speakers in the
92-93 academic year.
Joseph 'PatricliSutfwan
Are the people ready for a candidate as unconventional as Nader??
Although the majority of us probably aren't, there was a sizeable
turnout to listen to his wisdom the day Ralph Nader visited Merrimack
College. He may not have the experience of George Bush, or the good
looks and charm of Bill Clinton, but there is something captivating
about this gentleman.

given semester. While a few
remain trad itiona 1, many new
items have been added as
well. Program Board's
Theme Weeks hav'e become
popular around campus.
They consist of Welcome
Week for the first week back
in September; Winter Week
for entertainment before
finals and Christmas Break;
Welcome Back Week to kick
off the second semester; and
Spring Week, which
concludes the year with the
annual Spring Concert.
The One Night Stand (ONS)
Series, established a few years
ago, continues today with its
popular comedy /variety
shows, bringing well known
comedians and artists to the
Merrimack Campus.
A new endeavor taken on
by MPB this past year has
been the introduction of
weekend programming, and
it has been met by great
success. This concept has
evok ed into a series known
as the Saturday Things. Like
the ONS series, the main
concentration focuses on
bringing comedians, \’ariety
shows and small bands to
campus on weekends. In
conjunction with this
weekend progranuning idea,
the Movies segment has
expanded to provide
Saturday Matinees and
Double Features in addition
to the traditional weeknight
mo\’ies.
Finally, this past year has
introduced a new lecture
series to the MPB agenda.
Av'eraging at about two per
semester, the lectures
promote awareness of
educational issues among
students as well as facoilty
members. The hope is to
attract more jxx)ple as the
series becomes more popular.
Involvement with the
Program Board pro\ es to be
a rewarding experience.
Fellow members develop
great working relationships
with each other as well as the
professional entertainers they
bring to Merrimack. 0\ erall,
the Merrimack Program
Board pro\'ides a wonderful
opportuniW to meet lots of
new people. Anyone not in
the group is missing out on a
tally great experience here at
Merrimack College.

Public Service
Internship
ffered by the Political
Science ciepartment
each spring, the Public
I Service Internship Program is
I open to juniors and seniors of all
I majors. The program enables
( students to gain experience and
integrate their knowledge in a
professional environment by
serving as staff aides in v^arious
gov^ernment offices.
Students meet with the
program's advisor to discuss the
student's interests and
determine an appropriate
placement. Interns receive six
credits and are recquired to work
twenty hours a week, write an in
depth policy analysis, make an
informal presentation of their
research and participate in
biweekly seminars.
This year, fourteen students
participated in the program.
Their placements ranged from
fhe State House, Frost School,
Peabody Community
Development Office, Lawrence
City Attorney's Office, U.S.
District Court, AIDS Action
Committee and United States
Senator John Kerry's Office.
The Public ServTce Internship
provides an invaluable
experience for those who
participate in it. I would highly
recommend the program to all
students, especially political
science majors looking to gain
experience in government and
politics. (\(arwn ‘J{afferty

rO n October 9, 1984 the largest and oldest sorority at Merrimack, Pi Theta Epsilon, was founded. The letters I^E symbolize
pride, trust and et|uality. These are the beliefs for which all sisters pride themselves. With each new pledge class these beliefs are
intensified.
In its eight year experience, PTE has proven themseh'es in the community, going from being the only sorority' on campus
to the largest of three. In the fall PTE participated in the Walk-a-thon for cancer. At Christmas, time was spent wrapping presents
for orphaned children. Each semester proceeds from a bake sale help the rape crisis center. Recently PTE has participated with
Iron Stone farm in walking handicapped children on horses. During Spring Week, PTE sponsored a weeklong carnival for the
college community. Brought about bv the hard work of fundraiser Christine Amato, I’TE hopes the carnival will be an annual
event. It is these community projects that bond the sisterhood in Pi Theta Epsilon.
The sisters of PTE would like to thank Sister Elaine for all of her help. Our accomplishments would not have been jxissibk^
without her. The sisters of PTE would like to congratulate the Nu class and the Xi class as well as the graduating sisters.

Hach year, boh)re the holidays, the
Commuter Council sponsors a trip to
New York City, hor a mere sixteen
dollars, students were transported by
bus for an adv'enturous day in the
city. This year, a large number of
students took advantage of the low
price and chauffered transportation
to visit the Big Apple. Whether to
sightsee or go Christmas shopping,
the students took full advantage of
the city's offerings. They took in the
atmosphere of the city, eating at a
sausage stand and visiting such spots
as the Empire State Building, NBC
studios and Radio City Music Hall.
Despite the long, tiresome ride, those
who participated in the trip had a
great time and look forward to next
year's trip.

statt took on the responsi-
bility ot surveying
Merrimack's commuters.
1 lere are some ot the facts
they were able to compile.
Thank you to everyone who
helped by filling out sur-
veys!
As you might expect, we received a
wide range of answers to this ques-
tion. Students aredriving as slow as
30 mph and as fast as 80 mph. 80
sounds like the speed a student is
traveling at on his or her way to
school, but 30? Sounds a little
strange.
Other Responses Included:
"Too fast!"
"About 5 mph - - 1 walk."
"It depends on how late 1 am."
How many students actually obey the 15 mph
speed limit on campus?
!
““ILSssins® aiadl
Most commuters are
obeying the speed
limit - either that or
they'vebeen lucky! Ot
those surveyed, only
ten have been pulled
over going to or from
school. Six of those
students got tickets.
Some of them have
gotten more than one
ticket. How much
were the tickets for?
Charges ranged from
$50 and $70 to as much
as $160 and $180! Slow
down - or buy a radar
detector!
Abox’e Donna Kalogianis smiles after parking her car. Her happy expression tells us
that she is one of the students that is either obeying the speed limit or blessed with
good luck.
Wlhaft aiir©
Merrimack commut-
ers are traveling in
style! The majority
of those surveyed
own cars that are
fairly new. The most
popular year of make
is 1987, closely fol-
lowed by 1989, 1985
and 1991. We may
have to keep an eye
out for the police, but
at least we don't have
to worry too much
about our car break-
ing down because it's
too old .
iWlh® air®
I- to?
A few students are listening to
tapes of their favorite artists
Michael Bolton, Billy Joel and
Ozzy Osbourne. The majority of
you, however, choose to listen to
the radio cruising to and from
campus.
Favorite radio stations, in order
of popularity, include:
94.5 WZOU
100.7 WZXL
107.3 WAAF
KISS 108
Moz’e - These two students are in charge of the music during the Greek Games. If
they're like most of Merrimack commuters, they're tuned in to 94.5 WZOU.

This year the Com-
muter Council
sponsored a trip to
Boston to see Shear
Madness. Students
enjoyed the Boston
nightlife, seeing the
production and
spending a few fun
filled hours in
Faneuil Hall. With
such a successful
event under their
belts, perhaps the
Commuter Council
will sponsor trips to
see other produc-
tions in the future.

Political hiterlude
Former senator Paul Tsongas visited the Merrimack College
campus on the sunny, cool afternoon of March 10, 1992.
Senator Tsongas' discussion covered a wide range of topics,
focusing on the 1 992 presidential race. Senator Tsongas spoke
of his own campaign, which he suspended ten days after
Senator Tom Harkin withdrew from the race. He then dis-
cussed the race between President Bush, Governor Bill Clinton
and H. Ross Perot. He also mentioned his future business
plans to start a not for
profit organization.
Senator Tsongas then
fielded questions from
the audience. His ad-
vent drew droves of
our Merrimack com-
munity to pack
Murray Lounge. Our
thanks to Mr. Tsongas
for his visit.

irlian View
It, sixty years ago, in relative obscurity, a
fellow by the name of George Kirlian discovered a photo-
graphic process in which the corona discharges of ordinary
objects are recorded directly onto photographic plates.
From its introduction to the present, the results of this
process have been analyzed and a number of theories
regarding the auras' origin have been put forth. The
process involves taking a specimen and placing a potential
of around twenty-five thousand volts across it. The speci-
men will glow with warm flourescent colors, and these can
be caught on film. The process is carried out in absolutely
light free conditions— even safe lights are enough to ruin
the experiment. With patience and care, it is possible to get
some very striking images, as you can see to the right.
While theories abound about the mythical nature of the
things, the science behind them is well understood. This
does not make them any less interesting. They are one of
the several alternative ways to look at our world. The
different colors you see are the result of various moisture
levels, chemicals, and rough spots on the objects.
The top photo shows a double exposure of a leaf.
Exposure time was around 10 seconds for each end.
The bottom photo shows a single leaf exposed for
approximately 12 seconds. Of course, the colors are not
the colors of the leaves, they are the colors of the corona
discharge of the leaves.

LOOSE PAGE
skewered text, you like??
reetiiigs kids: Just a little line trom one member of the
Merrimack College commmrity to you. I'd Like to take this time to talk
about what's happening with the yearbook as it relates to our schcxtl.
For the next paragraph the layout editor will have control over your
reading material. Do not attempt to make adjustments.
I control the font.
/ control the italization.
1 can be bold or ...
Shadowed or ... reallysmall.
Seriously, what is happening to the yearbook? Since the age of
interactive yearbcx)ks is not yet upon us, 1 shall present some answ^ers
myself, for your consideration.
i The yearbcwk v\ill continue to be a guicfe, a helping hand to peel back
months and years into a nostalgic past for all of us. For tlris reason, it
is imperative that the yearbook have a strong bond with tradition. Tlie
faces, names, events, smiles, honors, joys, and struggles aU need to be
! married together. Indeeci, the role of the yearbook is to remind us of our
rela tionslrip as students c')f Merrimack College and siblings under Gcxl .
It is also in the motus operand! of the yearbook to provicie an insight of
sorts; perhaps it is our part even to be a lantern onto the paths ahead of
i us. In the spirit of progress, then, the yeartxx)k has and wiU conhnue
I to employ new' teclmology to present important ideas to our progeny.
To those in the yearbook family, the yearbook will teU bvo stories - it will
reve£il to our forebrain what has happened in, say, the April of 92, how
speakers came to Merrimack College for a talk on the current issues.
I And it will guide us to a time when we were a team, dedicated to the
compilation of a record. It is a time that will not be forgotten by any of
us.
So in the coming years, their into the turn of the century and beyond, it
will be crur goal to meld, in a pleasing and tivithful w'ay, the spirits of the
historical sense and of the propogativ'e sense.
It is our hope that generations can leanr and share with one airother
through the yearbook.
I would like to thank my big brother at Merrimack, Bob Sinrpson for
starting me on my journey in the the yearbook.
I have enjoyed the company of aU 1 have worked with- the love,
arguments, tenseness, aird friendship and, iir prinre, the spirit of the
team have been an inrportant part of my Merrimack exjaerience.
I look forw'ard to the new' year and the challenge of the new' book as an
Editor. I w'iU put forth my best effort to work as part of a team so that
we can agaiir produce a book we will be proud of. Of aU the graduates.
Heather and Marion will be badly missed. We w'ere fortunate to work
with them.
It is hard to believe, here in the middle of the summer, that in the fall
neither of them will be av'ailable so locally for the support they always
provided. Wlrere will this bloke be sans the occasional ribbing so
gratuitously provided by our illustrious Marion? Jest aside, 1 regret she
w'on't be here, and I will miss her... Heather, I'm trving to see the
distance from you as a gift... Tlrat will not be possible, w'ltile absence
won't make the heart go to wither, it surely can't provide for the greatest
fondness I hav'e encountereci being your partner and, though I fear it
may belittle our bond to label as such. Friend. Tlrank you...
I'd like to encourage with aU my heart all members of the Merrimack
communitv to joitr us in wii ting liistory for Merrimack CoUege for 1 992-
93.
Sincerely,
Eric "Xavier" Browri

'IXW, u’fen members of the cfass of 92 ho(d this in their hands, they iihfhbe cobbecje graduates .. about
to begin the reaf trip "on the road to success. ’’ ‘Many hours of study, group projects, bast minute term
papers, drinlqng, and, of course, the age old fai>orite, procrastination, zidbf be fond memories.. Schedules
can no longer be altered to satdfy the desire to snooze until 11:00- how depressing. ‘Before I continue
with my closing words as ‘Editor- In -Chief, I would IH^ to uHsh the graduates, and the underclassmen
the best in all of their endeavors.
The ultimate question., what do I, as ‘Editor of this boo^unsh to say to members of the Merrimaclli
College Community 9 Jirst of all, I hope everyone enjoys it. Mthough the staff ivas in a rebuilding mode,
certain people put a great deal of time and effort into its creation. 1 zinll be the first to admit that there
are certain things I would haz'e liked to have done better, but, unfortunately, the level of support given
by so many of the facul ty and staff members, as well as some of our peers, did not permit me to do so.
Confrontations regarding the darkroom, frightfully few responses fromfaculty members regarding desired spotlights, and unanswered memos in regards to photography
appointments for certain departments combined to make the job of creating the “perfect bookf quite difficult.
Of course, there were certain students who promised the zvorld. To those zvhodid contribute zinite -ups or photos, I thankjjou. ltdobznous that you are the students
who realize that a yearbook^ a piece of history ..in some senses, a perfect shozvease to brag about a clubs ora team 's accomplishments. ‘To some of the students who
made a commitment but faded to follow through, zvhat ever happened to those f acuity interzhews?‘l\'hy, if youcouldn 'tcoz’er the events did you accept the responsibility F
And finally, to the two indizHduals who called late in luly zidth the hopes of submitting photos.. 'Did you ez’er thinkzve had lives zve zvant to get on zinthFF Although
the photos would haz>e been quite help ful earlier on, have you ewer heard of deazllinesF
‘Well, what is done is done. ‘To the indizndueds who never made an effort to get irwolzred, you have not earned the right to criticize. If, howez'er, any member of
the class of 93, 94, or95feeU he could improve the publication, I challenge him to zoalk_into the office, and join the staff. ‘I’ersonally, despite the occasioned frustration,
I have obtained a great deal of knowledge regarding software systems, politics, and human nature. More importantly, I have made some long lasting friendships.
Although the yearbewkjnay not offer the glamour of a fraternity, or a sorority, and, anijone who takes it seriously zinll workjiard, it offers something more significant,
a sense of accomplishment when i/ou hold the fined product in your hand and reediz.e ... I did this.
The most important part of this message I have saved for last, words of thanks to the staff. To my partner in crime, Marion ‘Eliz.abeth ‘J\gfferty, we did it! 'Despite
our tiffs, driznng each other nuts (usiudly over the most insignificant things), and, the zoonderful bureaucratic nonsense, zve produced a fine product and maintained
a friendship. It zinll definitely be strange, not needing to "live "in the office, but, it is time to move on. ‘To my sainng grace, ‘Fhotography 'Editor Cara ‘DeMarco, enough
thanks could never be expressed. Cara, without your efforts, the bookwould have been a lot of copy.. ‘To Steven ‘Ehmianntraut, zvho, by farheul one of the most difficult
sections in the book, I could zinite a eiovel. ‘Thanlfyoufor the laughs, being the honorary "pub editor, " and, of course for being the head of “distribution. " I zvilllook.
forward to seeing your worlfas Senior Editor ne\t year. ‘Tien ‘Jarmer, thanifyoufor being a dependable imliindual, and, if course, for fulfilling the role ofAssistan t
TearbookjPsychiatrist. Scott Tones, I truly hope you decide to return to the staff, even if you do not resume your role as Sports ‘Editor, f'o^f enthusiasm, your heart,
and your abdity to motwate zinll be missed otherwise. Meather iHussey, you 're the best!! ‘ll’e are on the zvay to creating a commuter section zvith substance. ‘Best of
ludfne^C year proznding some equdibrium. Without Sharon Chin, ‘DaynaDTtria, or Christine ‘Dufresne, the senior section would also be quite different. Christine
‘Dufresne unll cdzvays be remembered as the individual who zvas kind enough to capture some of the senior weekjvents on film. Last but not least, zvords of zvisdom
to the Layout ‘Editor Eric ‘Brozvn. I could have never done it without you. ‘Jor that matter, I could have never completed senior year zinthout you. ‘Tour emotional
support unll forever be remembered and cherished. Ilookforward to seeing how you
unll allow your creativity to improve the 93 book: I have the utmost confidence in
your abdity to be one of the best Editors ever.
In closing, I would like to thanlfthree indizndual who played a very special role
in my life before, and during this position, ‘llpbert Simpson, the fonner editor of the
booki and my parents. ‘Bob, I may have cursed you in the beginning, but I nozv
realize, there is something special about working on this book. It is like an
unidentifiable something that frustrates you, challenges you, but then, eventually,
teaches you. Thank_you for getting me involved. And, of course, to my parents. I
really was over here all those nights.. ‘B'll'T, IT IS O'lElRJ! Mom, there unll be no
more yearboofstuff laying around the house!!! And, there unll be no more fits of
anger!! Thank-you for putting up zvith me and encouraging me not to quit.
(food luclfto ne?(t year’s staff of the ‘Merrimackan. I hope that more students
at Merrimackdecide to investigate and en ter into the wonderful world of the college
yearbook:
